2014 Bordeaux!



How about an 11 year old Bordeaux that you can drink now!!!
It is hitting its drinking window "Best from 2020-2034" The Wine Spectator

2014 Smith Haut Lafitte Pessac-Leognan Rouge...$109.99
Dense and beautifully ripe, this is a rounded rich wine. It focuses on the tropical yellow-fruit spectrum. That gives a full wine with wood-spice hints and just the right amount of citrus acidity to give it a lift. Drink this finely structured wine from 2023.
Rated 97/100 The Wine Enthusiast
This has a generous feel, with ripe fig, boysenberry and blueberry compote fruit flavors that are entwined with alluring roasted apple wood, melted licorice and warm fruitcake notes. The broad, mouthcoating finish has a terrific graphite underpinning to stay honest. Best from 2020 through 2035. 10,000 cases made.
Rated 94/100 The Wine Spectator
