Commentaires de dégustation des critiques :

Le Figaro Vin (2018)
Vin ample, dense, équilibré, pointe graphite, frais, juteux.

Wine Advocate (2020)

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Smith Haut Lafitte charges out of the gate with bold expressions of warm redcurrants, baked blackberries and crème de cassis with hints of spice cake, dried roses, underbrush and pencil lead plus a waft of candied violets. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a fantastic core of densely packed red and black fruits, framed by wonderfully ripe, rounded tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and perfumed.

Wine Enthusiast (2020)
This wine is distinct in its texture, with a mere hint of spice from wood. What makes it special is the harmony among perfume, acidity, texture and superb fruit. The wine finishes with a touch of saltiness. It needs plenty of time, don't drink before 2022.

Wine Spectator (2020)

Intense blackberry and raspberry paste flavors run through the middle, flanked by steeped anise, black licorice and roasted apple wood notes. The finish is grounded by a strong graphite spine, while the fruit pumps through. A lingering echo of violet adds a graceful accent. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2022 through 2038. 10,000 cases made. — JM

James Suckling (2019)

Wonderful depth of fruit here with blackberries, wet earth, mushrooms, dark chocolate and violets. Full-bodied, tight and poised with polished and compressed tannins. Consistent finish. Linear and focused. A blend of Drinkable now, but better in 2022.

Decanter (2019)

This stands out among the flight, deep in colour with a silky, seductive texture. Enjoyable, sleek and full of grilled spice, cassis fruits, liquorice and chocolate. One of the very few that stands up well to the vintages on either side of it. It's good stuff from Smith Haut Lafitte with well drawn out tannins and a compelling aromatic structure, something that I'm not finding in enough of the 2017s. Drinking Window 2024 - 2038

Jancis Robinson (2019)
Dark crimson. Ripe and sweetly but not overly oaky on the nose. Beautifully aromatic already. The oak is certainly there on the palate but not surprising at this young age. And the fruit is firm, fresh and scented. Lithe tannins in a harmonious whole. Long and lovely even in youth. Deep, chewy and balanced but needs patience. Great fruit depth. (JH)
