Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2007 Bordeaux tasting. The 2007 Le Petit Cheval has a very dry and very green nose that is torn from the pages of a Loire Valley Cabernet Franc instead of a Saint Emilion. In a strange way, I like it. It suits my style. The palate is medium-bodied with firm, slightly dry tannins. Yes, there is a vein of greenness, but it lends freshness and edginess to this wine. That Loire theme continues from the nose; however, there is fine structure here, and even if the finish feels curt, I would take another sip.
