Note di degustazione
The 2015 Le Petit Haut Lafitte Blanc is very pretty. Bright, floral and nicely sculpted, the 2015 exudes class, especially for a second wine. Complete and remarkably harmonious, the 2015 is simply impeccable. The blend is 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Sémillon taken from parcels that inform the Grand Vin. Lemon confit, melon, chamomile and jasmine add lovely shades of nuance. Texturally, the 2015 is quite beautiful and full of allure.

Composed of 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Sémillon, the 2015 Le Petit Haut Lafite Blanc opens with notes of fresh grapefruit, white peaches and orange blossoms with touches of chalk dust and dried thyme. Medium-bodied, fine, refreshing, pristine and clean, it has a racy backbone of acid cutting through the vibrant citrus flavors, finishing on a chalky note.
The 2015 Le Petit Haut Lafitte Blanc shows the brightness and tension from the elevated presence of Sauvignon Blanc in the blend along with a measure of lightly honeyed unctuousness from the Sémillon. Lemon peel, white flowers, sage and mint are front and center in this finely sculpted, expressive white from Smith Haut Lafitte. Le Petit is 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Sémillon.
