2025 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte Pre-Arrival Offer

Other Reviews...
The 2025 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte is redolent of blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol, new leather, licorice and espresso. Medium in body, with fine energy, Le Petit Smith offers plenty of Cabernet Sauvignon savoriness to match its mid-weight personality. Drink 2028-2040.

Antonio Galloni - Vinous

A structure and long red with beautiful cabernet fruit, currants and hazelnuts. It's medium- to full-bodied with a firm and slightly chewy texture and a persistent finish. 60% cabernet sauvignon and 40% merlot.

Notes of smoky tobacco, blackcurrants, scorched earth, and gravelly earth all emerge from the 2025 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte, the second wine of Smith Haut Lafitte and a terrific effort in the vintage. Based on 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot, it's rich and medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a pure, concentrated, layered style, ripe tannins, and a great finish.

Supple and juicy with both ripe creamy fruit and lively acidity as well as firm structure. I like the Cabernet aspect – blackcurrant leaf, bramble berries, fresh mint, concentrated, dark and cool with a delicious wet stone, flinty, salty aspect. Not too dense but there’s length and good body with a real push of aromas and fragrance as well as intensity of flavour all the way through. Very good. 3.6pH. A yield of 28hl/ha. Began the red harvest from the 3 September to the end. Drink 2029-2037.
