Drawn from the gravelly and clay soils of Saint-Émilion, Petit Cheval 1989 (Château Cheval Blanc) is a blend of Merlot (72%) and Cabernet Franc (28%). Fruity and spiced, with elegant tannins and a mineral touch, it can be cellared for 10 to 15 years and pairs beautifully with red meats and aged cheeses.
