The 2019 Smith Haut Lafitte has turned out very well indeed, unwinding in the glass with a complex bouquet of dark berries, cassis, forest floor, pencil shavings, licorice and spices. Full-bodied, broad and velvety, it's layered and elegantly muscular, underpinned by rich structuring tannins and lively acids, and it concludes with a long, expansive finish. This is another estate where the viticultural and stylistic evolutions of the last decade have delivered a beautifully balanced, harmonious 2019.

這個年份由59%的赤霞珠、36%的梅洛、4%的品麗珠和1%的味而多混釀而成，采摘是從9月17日至10月10日。該酒在法國橡木桶中陳釀，其中60%為新桶。2019年份的史密斯拉菲特呈深石榴紅色，泛有紫色光澤，溫熱的黑醋栗、巧克力包裹的櫻桃、黑森林蛋糕和黑樹莓的香氣從酒杯中層層釋放，聞起來十分愉悅，還伴有淡淡的肉桂吐司、丁香、樟腦和鐵礦石香氣。酒體中等至飽滿，口感清新又充滿活力，帶有濃郁成熟的黑色水果風味，單寧細膩，余味悠長，略帶礦物味。非常驚艷！
