Neal Martin
The 2021 Le Petit Cheval (Blanc) is 80% aged in foudres and 20% in demi-muids, 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon. It has a well-defined bouquet, fresh and vibrant, displaying Anjou pear and touches of Granny Smith, petrichor scents surfacing with aeration. The palate is well-balanced with a lovely texture, the Sémillon playing a greater influence than the proportion of the blend would suggest and imparting a slightly waxy texture. Fleeting touches of chamomile and quince emerge toward the finish. Excellent. 92 points
