James Suckling

"This is a very polished and precise young wine with beautiful depth and intensity. Full and sexy. It shows blueberry and black currant character with walnut and chocolate undertones. The tannins have a lovely texture. Joy to taste."

Antonio Galloni

"The 2015 Smith Haut Lafitte is superb. Dark, powerful and towering, the 2015 exudes richness and a level of intensity in all directions that is remarkable. This is an especially dark, brooding Grand Vin built on serious depth, intensity and structure, and yet there is more than enough richness in the fruit to balance things out. The extreme heat of the year appears to have baked out some of the aromatic nuance. It will be interesting to see if that dimension opens up. For now, the 2015 is massively shut down. Readers will have to be especially patient, as the 2015 won´t be ready to drink for some time. Both en primeur samples I tasted were less expressive than the separate components were when I tasted them from barrel in late January 2016, so I won´t be surprised at all if the bottled wine comes in at the top of this range. Tasted two times."

The Wine Advocate

The 2015 Smith-Haut-Lafitte is adorned with a special label to celebrate the 650th anniversary of the château and the 25th vintage made under the ownership of Daniel and Florence Cathiard. It is a blend of 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, picked between 23 September until 12 October with the Cabernet Franc. Matured in 65% new oak (although technical director Fabien Teitgen mentioned that he could have added more if he felt it would benefit), it has a very intense, blueberry and crème de cassis scented bouquet, a touch more opulent than its peers with hints of freshly shucked oyster shell developing with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannin couched in gorgeous, satin-textured black cherry and cassis fruit, tinged with cedar and pencil shavings. It lingers very long and sensually in the mouth, completing a sophisticated and powerful Smith Haut-Lafitte that should age in splendid fashion. "

"63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. Organic. A wonderful wine of great impact and rich, grippy tannins but the density imperceptibly lightens towards the finish so you are left with the impression of freshness even though the liquorice, black cherry and cassis flavour persists. Smith Haut Lafitte has clearly stopped chasing the ripest fruit, instead going for the most aromatic, at perfect phenolic maturity. 3.7pH, 65% new oak."

"New black label to celebrate the Cathiards' anniversary and that of the property.
Very dark. Comfortable base and lots of perfume. Round and sweet. Tense and tight. An excitingly taut package that promises well."

Jeff Leve

"With a good depth of color, this wine pops with black cherry liqueur, blueberry, licorice, smoke, truffle, cigar box and espresso notes in the bouquet. A fine purity of fruit with sweetness and ripe berries give you a wine that is not as flashy as 2009 or 2010, but there is focus, finesse, elegance, polished tannins, concentration and intensity of flavor, with the ability to age and improve. The wine was made from a blend of 63% Cabernet Sauvignon , 33% Merlot , 2% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc . Reaching 13.75% alcohol with a pH of 3.7, the harvest took place from September 22 to October 12 and the Grand Vin represents just 40% of the harvest. Because 2015 is the 25th vintage for the Cathiard family, and it's the 650th year that wine has been made at the estate, the wine will be placed in a special bottle with a sharp looking black and gold label!"

Jean-Marc Quarin

"Ma meilleure note donnée à ce cru en primeur à égalité avec le 2009.
Depuis cette date, le cru s'oriente vers plus de classe tactile. Le point d'orgue de ces subtiles modifications se retrouve dans le délicieux 2012 (17). Le 2015 se présente très fruité avec une bouche savoureuse, à la texture moelleuse, avec du corps et une note extraite en milieu de bouche. Le vin s'allonge en finale sur des tannins mûrs, avec une présence du bois soulignée. Bonne longueur. A suivre à l'élevage."

Revue du Vin de France

""Peu de cabernet franc cette année" précise Fabien Teitgen, directeur technique. Cela n'enlève rien à la bouche d'une grande saveur épicée aux tanins fermes, mais mûrs finissant dans la rondeur. Beaucoup de matière et très bel effet stylistique entre expression du fruit et nuances boisées. Un vin qui ira loin par sa fraîcheur et sa tension."

"There´s huge potential here, now only just hinting at its rich fruits and concentrated tannins. Dark and very firmly textured, it is going to be rich as well as finely balanced."

René Gabriel's BDX Total

"63 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 33 % Merlot, 2 % Cabernet Franc, 2 % Petit Verdot. Extrem dunkles Purpur mit lila und violetten Reflexen. Deutlich röstiger Beginn, Kaffeenoten, schwarze Kirschen. dunkle Edelhölzer, die Beerenkonturen zeigen alle drei Farben auf; rot, blau und schwarz. Im Gaumen erst elegant beginnend, dann mit seinen verlangenden Tanninen zugreifend. Er wird viel Flaschenreife brauchen, um diese noch extrahiert wirkenden Gerbstoffnoten in sich zu integrieren. Das Potential ist zweifellos da. Mit diesem 2015er feiert man gleich zwei Jubiläen. 650 Jahre Smith-Haut-Lafitte (seit 1365) und 25 Jahre Cathiard-Besitz (seit 1990)."

Wine Spectator

"Ripe and succulent in feel, with warm plum and blackberry confiture notes leading the way. Picks up singed alder and tar details through the finish, gaining extra depth. Very pure, but with ample grip in reserve. A serious wine."

"Vin de grande élégance profonde, brillant. Belle couleur, ensemble riche, harmonieux, élégant dans son tannin et dans son style plus racé encore que 2009 et plus harmonisé que 2010. Il fera une grande bouteille."

Yves Beck

"Rouge grenat violacé. Un bouquet tout en finesse révélant des notes de menthe et de pain d'épices. Le fruit se révèle à l'aération et se distingue par des parfums de mûres et de cassis. Attaque séduisante, alliant fraîcheur et friandise. Le corps a du gras et une excellente intensité aromatique. Il dispose de tannins très sains qui se révèlent lentement, en fin de bouche. Ils sont granuleux et ont suffisamment de matière pour tenir tête à la structure. Une belle réussite, qui demandera de la patience."
