Nose: slightly jammy blackberry fruit.

Palate: reasonably clean blackberry fruit. Some nice internal aromatics. Mineral. Some oak that should integrate.

Long and juicy finish. — 3 years ago

Deliciously sweet rosé with grapefruit overtones and hints of peach. Think summer afternoons by the pool, or at a barbecue. — 7 years ago

Holiday party fun: a little austere. Disappointed. Yes I know you are drinking lafitte! But nose is fantastic but fruit is a little lacking and tastes tight even after decanting. I continue to think 03 are over hyped — 8 years ago

Very savory, underbrush, herbs, and pencil shavings, with dried red fruit. Interesting cus apparently this hasn’t seen any oak. Medium body, fine tannins, and nice lift. — 4 years ago

Easy going champagne with a very vinous palate, with acid and a nice bready and lemony note and subtle bubbles and a silky layer on the sides. Aperitive champagne par excellence ! — 6 years ago

I’ve reviewed this wine before - I prefer the 04 better:) but still great example for this producer. Medium bodied with dark cherry, graphite and little cedar. — 7 years ago

Smith haut lafitte called..... they want their wine back. Omg I thought this would be good with clams but it actually needs about a decade (or two) to shed its baby fat. Incredible wine... serious wine..: — 8 years ago

2004 Millesime. Random-ostos Carrefourista, mutta niin hieno 2x EUR löytö. Vahva lähtö, mutta lyhyt loppu. Paljon luonnetta. Ostan uudelleen, jos löydän jostain. — 8 years ago

The 07 Bordeaux’s have turned out better than critically reviewed young for many quality producers. I became aware of that in 2014 when I had the 07 Smith Haut-Lafitte at the property with beef stroganoff prepared by their chef at lunch. I wouldn’t hold the 07’s as long as I would hold many other vintages but drinking beautifully now.

Nose show’s floral, slightly ruby to baked fruits of; blackberries, black plum, dark cherries, strawberries, raspberries on the glass edge, touch of pomegranate, tobacco leaf, excellent, soft graphite, dark, rich, moist, forest floor with dry leaves, notes of steeped tea, touch of black licorice, wet clay, limestone minerals, mixed dark berry cola, vanillin, light, fresh herbaceous notes, understated cinnamon & nutmeg, gentle, dark spice, sandalwood with fresh & withering dark, blue, purple forals.

The palate/mouthfeel is ruby, lush and pretty. Crazy beautiful. Blackberries, black plum, dark cherries, strawberries, a touch of purple fruits, raspberries on the glass edge, touch of pomegranate, candied tarriness, tobacco leaf, excellent, soft graphite, dark, rich, moist, forest floor with dry leaves, saline, notes of steeped tea, touch of black licorice, wet clay, limestone minerals, dry soil, dry river stones, crushed rocks, mixed dark berry & cherry cola, red licorice, vanillin, light, fresh herbaceous notes, understated cinnamon & nutmeg, gentle, dark spice, sandalwood with fresh & withering dark, blue, purple forals. Beautiful acidity. The lush finish is well balanced, nice structure even mix of fruit & earth and lasts two-minutes.

Great pair with the Allen Brothers Cowgirl Bone-in Ribeye.

Velvet velvet velvet.
This is the utmost in finesse. Ethereal wine. Not a lot of body and many might think its lean. I find it really excellent and its a Pomerol with Lafitte like tannins, drink or hold, your choice. Highly recommended. — 7 years ago
