Bordeaux

With its 38 appellations, the Bordeaux vineyard is the most important in France in terms of AOC. Some of the wines produced there are among the most famous and expensive in the world, making Bordeaux a world benchmark in terms of wine production.

The vineyard's production is varied: around 80% red wines (such as Pomerol or Pauillac) and 20% dry white wines (such as Entre-deux-mers or Pessac-Léognan) or sweet (for example Sauternes or Cadillac), to which are added rosés, clairets, and sparkling wines (crémant de Bordeaux).

SMITH HAUT LAFITE PESSAC LEOGNAN 2000

PESSAC LEOGNAN

Description

Smith Haut Lafite is a prestigious winery located in the Pessac Leognan region of Bordeaux, France. With a history dating back to the 14th century, the estate produces exceptional wines known for their elegance and complexity.

The 2000 vintage of Smith Haut Lafite Pessac Leognan is a beautiful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. This wine exudes aromas of dark fruit, tobacco, and spice, leading to a plush palate with velvety tannins. The flavors of blackberry, plum, and cedar are balanced by a refreshing acidity and a long, lingering finish. This Bordeaux is drinking beautifully now but has the potential to age further.
