The 2023 Château Smith Haut Lafitte checks in as 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Petit Verdot, resting in 60% new oak. It sports a deep ruby/plum hue as well as awesome aromatics of smoky red and black fruits, scorched earth,...
A rather "approachable" wine, powerful, broad-based and concentrated with a smooth texture that caresses the palate. The mid-palate is full-bodied and equally concentrated, paving the way for a lovely long aftertaste. A decidedly delicious and lively wine combining power, concentration, and smoothness! The aftertaste is very long, showcasing great complexity where spices and empyreumatic notes typical of the terroir nicely balance out fruity overtones.
This is an extremely precise Smith-Haut-Lafitte, certainly a cerebral 2016 that might well be approachable young, yet will certainly age in consummate style. The ch?teau's own tasting note reads What more could one possibly want from a wine?" The answer t...
A wine I was able to taste on multiple occasions, the 2015 Troplong Mondot is a tour de force that readers need to snatch up. This cuvee comes from the cool, clay and limestone soils on the upper plateau (it’s the highest point in the appellation) and is ...
The 2023 Troplong Mondot is simply stunning. It's one of the best
wines yet made under the direction of Aymeric de Gironde. Towering
and statuesque, the 2023 explodes out of the glass with tons of vertical
energy. Dark red-toned fruit, licorice, spice,...
The 2020 Trotanoy is tremendous. Even better, it might not take forever to
come around! Vertical in build, with tons of explosive energy, Trotanoy
offers a beguiling mix of black cherry, plum, licorice, incense, dried herbs,
menthol and graphite. There...
The 2019 Trotanoy is blessed with ineffable delineation on the pure,
focused nose, which features touches of pencil lead and sous-bois
embroidered through a mélange of red and black fruit. Astounding. The
palate is perfectly balanced with seamlessly in...
