Hailing from the Pessac-Léognan appellation, Château Smith Haut Lafitte crafts powerful yet elegant red wines, showcasing the estate's commitment to quality and terroir expression.
The 2021 vintage was harvested between September 22 and October 14, with a yield of 23 hectoliters per hectare. The wine was aged in 60% new oak barrels.
What the critics say:
"The 2021 Smith Haut Lafitte is an engaging, dynamic wine. Gravel, menthol, licorice, mocha and spice are all beautifully delineated. A wine of energy and focus, the 2021 is absolutely enthralling-medium in body, refined and super-impressive."
"This is extremely perfumed, with violets, lavender, forest fruit and beeswax. Medium- to full-bodied with creamy, round tannins. It’s delicious already with a lovely balance, showing dark fruit, meat and chocolate with a hint of smoke. Straight and driven, it has a long finish for the vintage. 63% cabernet sauvignon, 33% merlot, 3% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot. From organically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but even better in a year or two. (2024)"
