2000 Smith Haut Lafitte Pessac Leognan
3 DECADES OF SMITH HAUT LAFITTE Today I hosted a dinner with chateau owners Daniel and Florence Cathiard of Smith Haut Lafitte with some of our customers. Cathiards bought SHL in 1990, and attained pinnacle winemaking skills in 25 years time, which was short for great vineyards. The 3 decades of red served are 1990, 2000 and 2010, all direct from chateau. I see vast improvements on this 2000, great fruits, bolder and firmer structure compared to 1990. Still slightly tannic, it'll mature elegantly.
