Château Smith Haut-Lafitte
Pessac-Léognan (Grand Cru Classé) 2017
A well-made and approachable Pessac showing harmony and finesse. Ruby core with some softening at the rim. The nose brings dark plum, graphite and earthy spice. Palate is medium-bodied with fresh black fruit, cedar and gentle herbal tones. Good balance of acidity and softening tannins. The finish is smooth and lightly savoury. [BB&R Bordeaux walk-around]
