Over het wijnhuis Château Smith Haut Lafitte heeft een geschiedenis van 800 jaar in Bordeaux. Het was Du Boscq die in 1365 de eerste wijnstokken plantte op een met kiezel bedekt plateau genaamd Lafitte. Een paar honderd jaar later nam George Smith het landgoed over en gaf het zijn naam plus de naam van het plateau mee. Sinds 1990 wordt Château Smith Haut Lafitte gerund door de familie Cathiard.

Awards "Denser and deeper than the Les Hauts de Smith, the 2022 Le Petit Haut Lafitte is a real success this year, revealing a lively, vibrant bouquet of dark wild berries, cassis, flowers and licorice mingled with delicate notes of rose. Medium to full-bodied, round and supple, it's layered and seamless and framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a long, floral finish. Perfect for gastronomy, this well-crafted Pessac-Léognan has plenty of freshness despite the dry season." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Aromas of currants and blackberries with orange peel and rose petals follow through to a medium body with racy and polished tannins that go on for a long time. Vivid and energetic. Second wine of Smith Haut-Laffite. 60% cabernet sauvignon and 40% merlot. Give it two to three years." - James Suckling

"60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot from the same plots as Les Hauts de Smith but with reversed proportions and designed to be aged longer. Sold en primeur. Cask sample. Deep blackish crimson. Very aromatic indeed. Luscious and vibrant with some real density and structure. Polish! Flattering Cabernet with serious tannins on the end. Hint of molasses but mainly structure and all the attributes of a proper, fine left-bank blend. Dry finish for the moment. Less dense than the grand vin but very serious. (JR)" - Jancis Robinson

"The 2022 Le Petit Smith Haut Lafitte is a rich, heady wine. A blast of dark cherry, plum, licorice, menthol, chocolate, tobacco and incense makes a strong opening impression. This Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend is all opulence. I would give it a few years to settle down." - Vinous

"This forward red displays ripe, succulent flavors of black cherry and black currant fruit paste laced with licorice root, alder and black tea. Offers a toasty finish but shows good energy and is accessible now. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2034." - Wine Spectator

"Beautiful nose, blackcurrant, vanilla, caramel, chocolate, tobacco, cherries, crushed stones, blue fruit and bramble fruits. Sleek and straight, nice acidity, but this is quite linear with the Cabernet really giving the backbone, length and overall structure. Feels a bit tense, but it does have texture too so it’s not austere or harsh, just strong. Really well built, delivering power no doubt, but keeping a soft juiciness underneath. Very medicinal - clove, liquorice, unmistakable Cabernet speaking here, but feels clean and well worked. Nothing sticking out too much with body, plushness and cool freshness. Good potential, really impressively constructed. 3.7p. Ageing 30% new oak." - Decanter
