Château Smith Haut Lafitte
Grand Cru Classé Pessac-Léognan Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Pessac-Léognan, Graves, Bordeaux, France
Freaking yum all around! Dark, broad and silky. Still some brambly primary fruit but also some nice cedar and green leaf tobacco. Nice spice and super soft on the palate. A joy to drink! Love it

Another great 1996 Bordeaux. Probably at its best now. The nose is marvelous- red fruit, leather, oriental spices, soy sauce. The palate is less inspiring but smooth and silky. Great with a south-western French dinner of duck breast and asparagus with morilles!

I really liked this. Golden color belied the acidity still present. Needed some time to come around but truly lovely.
