Petit Haut Lafitte 2009

All the hallmarks of this great vintage. Very deep colour. Briar and cut branches on the nose overlaying a fat bouquet. Very smooth attack. Attractive wine. This is a relatively new blend coming from the younger vines at the property which they started in 2007. It is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and 45% Merlot, from a part of the vineyard planted by Daniel Cathiard 15 years ago.
