Le Petit Haut Lafitte 2019 – Pessac-Léognan

The nose is fresh, racy, elegant and offers a beautiful finesse of the grain. It reveals notes of fleshy/juicy pear, crushed apple, small notes of quenette associated with small touches of quince, ripe lemon as well as discreet hints of lemon flowers/fresh flowers and a hint of Mirabelle (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers an acidulous frame, a beautiful definition, roundness, fat as well as suavity, tension and a finesse of the grain. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/pulpy lemon, juicy pear, small notes of juicy nectarine associated with touches of juicy quenette as well as fine hints of lemon flowers, fresh almond and an imperceptible almost buttered hint. Good length.
