L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

The 2015 Ciel du Cheval Vineyard offers up notions of sweet red and black berries, licorice, orange rind and cigar tobacco. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, supple and layered, with a deep core of fruit, firm but fine-grained structuring tannins and a long, rich finish. This is a bit more chunky and foursquare than this year's supremely charming Champoux bottling—as is to be expected from Red Mountain in a hot year—but it displays impressive stuffing and should evolve beautifully in the cellar.
