2019 Château Smith Haut Lafitte, Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux

Description

Happily there were no challenges this year for Smith Haut Lafitte’s biodynamic fruit and that can be felt in the wine’s considered and expressive demeanour this year. There is a delicacy within its approachability, evidenced by blueberry and blackberry notes, and the palate, whilst succulent, is bright, rewarding and delicious. Drink 2024-2035. Blend: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot

Pessac-Léognan

Pessac-Léognan

In 1986 a new communal district was created within Graves, based on the districts of Pessac and Léognan. Pessac-Léognan has the best soils of the region, very similar to those of the Médoc, although the depth of gravel is more variable, and contains all the classed growths of the region. Some of its great names, including Ch. Haut-Brion, even sit serenely and resolutely in Bordeaux's southern urban sprawl.
