2025 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc Pre-Arrival Offer

Other Reviews...
The 2025 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc, blended with 20% Sémillon from the plot in the Grand Vin, has an attractive nose with scents of grapefruit, citrus peel and touches of flint. Fine delineation and good vigour. The palate is well balanced, with a lovely texture, impressive weight, white peach mixed with pear and lemongrass that segues into a vibrant and spicy finish. Excellent. One of the best vintages that I have tasted. Drink 2028-2042.

The 2025 Le Petit Haut Lafitte Blanc (80% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Sémillon) is impeccable. Pear, apricot, white peach, white flowers and a kiss of French oak build nicely in the glass. The 2025 offers a captivating mix of mid-palate richness and energy. It's another compelling wine from Smith Haut Lafitte. Drink 2027-2037.

A beautiful, richer white, the 2025 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc offers up more stone fruits, orange blossom, spice, and crushed stone minerality than the Les Hauts. It's medium-bodied on the palate, concentrated, with wonderful purity and terrific acidity. Based on 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Sémillon, this is a brilliant Pessac-Léognan blanc.

Slightly waxy, wool, lemon and pear, caramel, lemon, honey, straw, quince. Cool and slightly creamy with a slightly vanilla peach pear aspect. I love the clarity and purity to this, it’s both slightly round and slightly streamlined thanks to the ripe fruit and crisp acidity. Clearly less dense and concentrated than past vintages although there's a soft richness and long length. I like the flavour combination, with a touch of bitterness on the very finish. Picked whites 20 August – 2 September. A yield of 18hl/ha. Drink 2026-2036.
