As it opens up, subtle aromas of violets and crushed herbs emerge, adding complexity to the bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full-bodied with a silky texture and well-integrated tannins. The flavours of dark fruits are carried through, with layers of blackcurrants, plums, and a touch of black pepper. The oak ageing lends a subtle smokiness and a touch of spice, while the acidity provides a refreshing lift and balance. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a satisfying and mouth-watering sensation. This Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte is a true testament to the excellence of Bordeaux wines and is sure to impress even the most discerning palates.
