Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc 2020

Château Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc 2020 is a Bordeaux white wine from the Pessac-Léognan appellation. Since it was acquired by the Cathiard family in 1990, this historic property has garnered a reputation as one of the finest producers in Pessac-Léognan. It has been certified organic since 2019. The property`s 2020 blanc is a blend of 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Semillon and 5% Sauvignon Gris, aged in 50% new French oak. "This massively rich, concentrated, powerful white offers a heavenly nose of honeyed flowers, orange marmalade, lemon grass, and toasted bread, with a building sense of salinity and minerality that shows on the finish. Drink this stunningly rich, layered, concentrated 2020 over the coming two decades." 100 points, Jeb Dunnuck, 2023
