Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Rouge Pessac-Leognan

Bordeaux

Pessac-Léognan

Captures the restrained pleasure of the vintage, with tension and just-enough density through the palate to maintain momentum,  juicy blackberry fruits laced with crayon and cocoa bean, and a punch of liquorice. Enjoyable, will age, give it three or four years.  21hl/h yield, Fabien Teitgen technical director.

Inside Bordeaux

Deep garnet-purple colored. Features notes of black cherries and black raspberries with nuances of iron ore, powdered cinnamon, and red roses. The medium-bodied delivers fine-grained tannins and lovely freshness to support the bright black and red berry flavors, finishing earthy.

Structured and pretty serious Petit SHL, focusing on blue and black fuits, good structure and tension, showcases the quality of this year's Cabernet Sauvignon, highlighting the nuance and inky character of the grape in 2023, harvest September 8 to October 5.

A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot aging in 30% new oak, the 2022 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Rouge is deep garnet-purple in color. It gallops out with powerful notes of plum preserves, creme de cassis, and licorice, followed by suggestions of chargrill, cardamom, and iron ore. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a solid structure of firm, grainy tannins and plenty of freshness to support the muscular fruit, finishing long with a mineral lift.

Dyp rød!
Dufter av mørke røde bær, hint av solbær og plommer?
Fyldig, fin frukt, fin syrlighet, godt integrerte tanniner og god lengde!

Deep garnet-purple in color, it leaps with youthful notes of fresh blackcurrants, black cherries, and mulberries, giving way to notions of cedar chest, crushed rocks, and cumin seed. The medium to full-bodied palate is coated with ripe, seductive black fruits, supported by rounded tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and earthy.
