"Château Smith-Haute-Lafitte dedicate 11 hectares of their vineyards in Graves to white wine production. In 1990, Olympic ski champions Daniel and Florence Cathiard purchased the Château and revolutionised its production, reducing the amount of intervention in the winemaking and planting two extra white grape varieties, which has greatly increased the desirability and complexity of the label’s blanc. Sauvignon Blanc dominates in the vineyard, with small parcels of Sauvignon Gris and Semillon. Grapes are whole berry fermented, and no skin contact or malolactic fermentation takes place. They are aged on lees for a year with stirring, then aged in 50% new oak."

The 2022 Chateau Pibran from Pauillac, Bordeaux, France is a true testament to the exceptional quality of this renowned wine region. A deep ruby hue greets the eye, hinting at the intensity and complexity to follow. Upon the nose, a bouquet of dark berries, currants, and subtle notes of oak and spice invite you in for a closer look. On the palate, the wine delivers a full-bodied experience with velvety tannins and a rich, layered texture. Flavors of black cherry, plum, and a touch of tobacco mingle together, leading to a long, satisfying finish. This vintage showcases the signature elegance and refinement of Chateau Pibran, making it a standout among the finest Bordeaux wines. Enjoy now or cellar for years to come.
