Le Petit Cheval - Saint-Emilion Grand Cru - Red - 2024

Not so “petit” after all.

The second wine of Château Cheval Blanc stands as a serious wine in its own right, taking on an increasingly important role in the Saint-Émilion landscape and fully embracing the estate’s standards of excellence.

More approachable than the Grand Vin, it reflects the pedigree of this northern Saint-Émilion terroir, right on the edge of Pomerol, where gravel and clay come together in a truly distinctive way. In 2024, this area performed particularly well, delivering some of the vintage’s most successful wines.

Thanks to the estate’s expert team, strict selection, and significant technical and human investment, this young vintage strikes a beautiful balance between charm and freshness. Made from 72% Merlot, it shows floral aromatics, silky tannins, and juicy, fleshy fruit. The result is a precise, vibrant wine that’s already highly enjoyable.

This year, it offers a rare opportunity to experience a legendary name from Saint-Émilion at a very attractive price.
