2014 Château Smith-Haut-Lafitte, Cru Classé Pessac-Léognan

2014 Château Smith-Haut-Lafitte, Cru Classé Pessac-Léognan

Fabien Teitgen, Technical Director at SHL sums it up nicely - "fresh, tense wines - the key is the acidity". This is a complex, concentrated effort made from 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. The palate has all the usual black berry fruit Cabernet qualities but with a lovely minerality and a persisence that marks it out as one of the top wines from Pessac in 2014. Superb!
