2006 Château Smith Haut Lafitte 93 Points
France, Bordeaux, Graves, Pessac-Léognan
Excellent. Exceeded my expectations. Early maturity has opened on this wine. Sweet, smooth tannins. Ripe. Pure. Fresh. Impressive weightlessness across the palate.

Similar aromas and flavors as the 2006, but the tannins are a bit grittier. Not as complete as the 2006, in my opinion. But an excellent wine.
