Comments by Fabien Teitgen, Technical Director
Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte Rouge 2014: The wine is red, very dark. The nose is expressive, very black, with aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant, then after it offers power of a black fruits blend made of red fruits, spices, pepper, liquorice, delicate notes of flint... The mouth is tight and round with a great acidity balanced by a good concentration and a good tannic structure. The aromatic mouth is very close from the nose with cherry, black currant, blackberry, licorice, cinnamon and a large flinty minerality.
Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Rouge 2020: extremely fine with silky tannins and beautiful aromas and flavours of Cabernet Sauvignon. Medium-bodied, with notes of blackcurrant, liquorice and dark chocolate. A great finesse and a good structure with a lot of ageing potential.
Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc 2020: complex with aromas of ripe stone fruit. A medium body texture and phenolic. It is a well controlled wine with a clear minerality

Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc 2014: Clear and vivid with sliced lemons and green apples on the nose. Flows through to a medium to full body, tangy acidity and a long and delicious finish.
