Description

90 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
“The 1996 Smith-Haut-Lafitte is the quintessentially elegant Bordeaux. With a dark ruby/purple color, it displays a beautiful presentation of blackberry and cassis fruit nicely dosed with subtle new oak. On the attack, the wine is sweet and pure, with striking symmetry, and a compellingly balanced mid-palate and finish. Although not as big as some blockbusters from this vintage, it is extremely complex (both aromatically and flavor-wise), and impressive for its restraint, subtlety, and impeccable balance."

Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
“Medium red. Warm aromas of redcurrant, hot gravel and tobacco. Supple and graceful in the mouth; not especially sweet but boasts rather penetrating flavor and firm framing acidity. Not quite as suave as this estate '95; finishes with slightly tough tannins. “


Excellent condition and provenance. Owned by a wine enthusiast who purchases wines only from great sources and all purchased wines are carefully cellared in a climate controlled wine cellar

Fast delivery within 2 days’ time.

Price shown is for 1 bottle.
