Petit Cheval Blanc (White) other_regions finishing long and earthyTasted blind. Lightly oily and with real Pessac Lognan character, I thought! Does not taste like 100% Sauvignon from Sancerre. Fuller and richer than most. Lively and rather compelling. Hint of passion fruit in a good way. Long and interesting.
