Description: Consists of 12 Bottles, 0.75L
Packaging: OWC.
Score: 98+ RP.
"This is an extraordinary performance once again from the Cathiard family, the proprietors of Smith-Haut-Lafitte. They think the 2010 is even better than the 2009. (I disagree, but only slightly.) This wine has laser-like definition in its an remarkable nose of a subtle charcoal fire interwoven with spring flowers, creme de cassis, blueberry liqueur and spicy wood. Full-bodied, stunningly concentrated, long, rich and moderately tannic, this wine is set for an exceptionally long life of 30-40 years . . ." Wine Advocate #205, Feb 2013
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $1,700
