Pessac-Léognan, Graves, Bordeaux, France
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.

This weekend we opened the 2020 Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte. In Pessac-Léognan from Daniel & Florence Cathiard. This is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot.
On the nose is very aromatic with black cherry, blackberry, black currant, graphite, chocolate, baking spice, minerlas and dark soil.
On the palate is black cherry, nkackberry. Plum, black currant, vegetal notes, cedar, graphite and earth.
This is a full bodied wine with medium+ acidity and medium + grippy tannins moving into a long bbn kack fruit graphite soil finish. I hope everyone's weekend has been a good one. Going forward into the new week stay positive, safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷
