Wine Advocate: 91+ Points
The 2020 Le Petit Cheval offers up aromas of minty cherries, plums, raw cocoa, mint and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and voluptuous palate underpinned by a broad-shouldered chassis of tannin. A blend of 59% Cabernet Franc and 41% Merlot, it's a rather structured young Petit Cheval that will reward a bit of patience.
Vinous: 89 Points
The 2020 Le Petit Cheval is a little simplistic compared to its peers in this flight, with black fruit and graphite notes, but it lacks nuance. The palate is medium-bodied with soft tannins; it's fleshy but needs more grip. This seems to be a wine predesigned to be approachable, and in that sense, it fulfills its purpose.
