Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc 2017 Pessac-Leognan Bordeaux France "region_Bordeaux" The flavors show intense depth97 Points Jeb Dunnuck One of the whites of the vintage is the 2017 Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte Blanc, which is based on 90% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% each of Sauvignon Gris and Semillon. Offering a huge, salty, mineral laced bouquet of crushed lemons, acacia flowers, pineapple, and crushed rocks, it hits the palate with full bodied richness, racy acidity, a stacked mid palate, and a crisp, chiseled, lengthy finish that keeps you coming back to the glass.
