Château Smith Haut-Lafitte white 2020
Bordeaux - Pessac-Leognan - Cru Classé - White Wine -Château Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc has undoubtedly become one of Bordeaux's greatest white wines. It has been rated 96/100 by all the critics. The 2020 vintage is a highly aromatic wine with good structure and freshness.
The colour is pale yellow.
The nose is expressive, with a concentration of ripe yellow fruit and floral notes, followed by a very elegant woodiness.
The palate is generous, fleshy and greedy. A fresh attack, the mid-palate texture is enveloping and reveals a precise tannic structure;
The blend of the 2020 vintage is made up of 90% of Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Semillon and 5% Sauvignon Gris
Maturing for the 2020 vintage was 12 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which were new.
The wine is certified organic.
The 12bouteilles advice : a white wine for laying down that will age magnificently. If you want to taste the bottle, we recommend decanting it an hour before serving at around 12°. This wine will go wonderfully with white fish, turbot for example, and cheese.
