Tasting Notes


The Smith Haut Lafitte Rouge 2016 from Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux, France is a true representation of the artistry and excellence of Château Smith Haut Lafitte. This vintage, with its deep, intense ruby red hue, immediately entices the senses. On the nose, one is greeted with a complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits, such as blackcurrants and plums, along with subtle hints of cedar and spices. The palate is rich and full-bodied, yet elegant, with velvety tannins that give structure and balance to the wine. The flavours of blackberries, cherries, and a touch of vanilla dance on the tongue, leading to a long and lingering finish. This 2016 vintage is a harmonious blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Petit Verdot, showcasing the unique terroir of Pessac-Léognan. A true gem from Château Smith Haut Lafitte, this wine is a must-try for any wine connoisseur.
