Le Petit Haut Lafitte Red Bordeaux Blend

Estate dates back to Crusades & Scottish navigator, George Smith, owner in the 18th century. Blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot aged in 20% new oak, deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry, herbs and earthy spice. On the palate flavors of plum, cherry & currant with notes of pepper, tobacco & cacao notes. Soft rich full tannins, long finish ending with fruit, earthy and mineral character, needs a little more time.

Would buy again. Beautiful deep color. Nose is vibrant dark fruits, plum, blueberry. Palate is earthy and less fruit forward than I would have thought given the nose. Long dry finish, with medium to high tannins. Balanced and great with fatty steak.

60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot from the young grape plots

Dark ruby hue. Tasting notes of blackberry and black cherry. Medium-plus body, with medium-plus tannins and plus acidity. Smooth yet refined. 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot.

Slight oak aroma. Rich, rounded. Honey. White fruits, then citrus. banana, pineapple. Enough acidity. Nuts. 2019 @1380, wine plus, 221106
