Petit Cheval Size:6x750ml and in need of patience

and in need of patience

only Tempranillo is used (except for the white which is produced exclusively with Viura)

airy and admirably pure nose features crystal clear and transparent red pinot fruit and essence of stone

This is a wonderfully impressive wine that has the touch of youthful austerity that Champans always seems to display

Give this 5-8 years of time before popping a cork and enjoy it for the next 20 years after that

Petit Cheval Size:6x750ml and in need of patienceBright medium red. Strawberry, redcurrant and violet on the nose. Juicy and vinous, with redcurrant and delicate coffee flavors showing good sweetness and plenty of early appeal. Finishes moderately long and a bit simple, with a hint of dusty minerals, repeating floral nuances and smooth tannins. A lovely wine expressing pristine aromas and flavors. Pierre Lurton and technical director Pierre Olivier Clouet told me that the final blend is 72% merlot
