Château Smith Haut Lafitte
Grand Cru Classé de Graves Red Bordeaux Blend
Graves, Bordeaux, France
Vintage 2007 | A treat. This Graves wine rocks each time I taste it. Mesmerizing smell. Lots of character and fruit in a taste that still shows tannins after 17 years. Very good effort in what is seen as a difficult year. Paired with truffed hamburger.

No human remains were used in the making of this beautiful Bordeaux blend from Graves :)
Although I did get some subtle meat on the nose.

Aug 3rd, 2013Fresh mushroom, berry and currant on the nose and palate. Medium body, good tannins and plenty of fruit for the vintage.
