Château Smith Haut-Lafitte Pessac Léognan Cru Classé de Graves 2005

A wine that I have been lucky enough to drink several times recently, and it’s tasting superb right now. Generous and welcoming, with grilled red peppers, rosemary, toasted sandalwood, cedar, liqourice, espresso, well textured tannins, sage and turmeric spice that freshens the finish and keeps you wanting more. Excellent quality from technical director Fabien Teitgen and owners Florence and Daniel Cathiard.
