Domaine de Chevalier Rouge
Pessac-Leognan
Vinous.com/Neal Martin -
The 2017 Domaine de Chevalier was impressive from barrel. Bottled since June
2019, it has clearly retained that gorgeous nose with delineated scents of
blackberry, black olive, shucked oyster shells and orange rind. Wonderful
vigour here. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, lithe and very
focused. It is not a powerful nor indeed a long-term Domaine de
Chevalier, ergo my lower score than 2016. Bottom line is that it is just
a delicious wine to consume. Still, it will offer 20 years of drinking
pleasure. Tasted twice with consistent notes

LE
PETIT HAUT LAFITTE
Pessac-Leognan
2nd Wine of Chateau
Smith Haut Lafitte
The top wine currently sells for £84 a bottle! So this is real value.
RP/Lisa
Perrotti-Brown
-
Composed of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot
coming from the younger vines of Smith Haut Lafitte, the 2015 Le Petit Haut
Lafitte sports a medium garnet-purple colour and an alluring crushed red
currants, black cherries and spice box-laced nose with touches of cloves and
lavender. Medium to full-bodied with wonderful generosity and plenty of
spice, the open-for-business flavours are well-supported by plush tannins,
and it finishes with a peppery lift.
