Wednesday, May 19, 2010 - Now entirely sourced from their vineyards on Mount Veeder, this is a fantastic wine! With a medium body, it reminds me of some of the great white Bordeaux's that I love. Interestingly enough, they have begun to grow a small amount of Sauvignon Gris, a grape Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte uses to blend in their white Bordeaux. I am not sure if there is any in the 2008 but I assume you will see it in future productions. While certainly fantastic, the only bummer is the price ($50) but you are getting one of the top Sauvignon Blancs from California so it is worth it.
