International Wine Cellar Author: Stephen Tanzer Issue: Issue 132

($39-$50) Deep red. Roasted red fruits, smoked meat, tobacco and a note of truffle on the expressive nose. Sweet and rather primary, with classic Pessac-Leognan flavors of iron, woodsmoke, hot stones and tobacco. Broad and smooth for the year, if not quite as dense as the young 2006. Finishes with lovely ripe tannins and lingering sweetness. This will offer early pleasure.

Dark and glossy. Correct and quite intense. Soft and smooth - much softer tannins than most 2004s. Beautifully managed! Bravo! You could drink this young but it will probably last well too.

Wine Advocate Author: Robert Parker Issue: 171

A sensational effort and one of the stars of the vintage, Smith-Haut-Lafitte's 2004 possesses an inky/blue/purple-tinged color as well as a sumptuous nose of lead pencil shavings, spring flowers, blueberries, and blackberries. Surprisingly full-bodied for the vintage with stunning concentration, purity, and overall harmony, this is another brilliant wine from the proprietors, the Cathiards, who have done such a spectacular job at this estate since the early 1990s.

Wine Spectator Author: James Laube

Lots of blackberry, spice and tobacco on the nose, with hints of cigar box. Full-bodied, with soft, round tannins and a dark chocolate and fruit aftertaste. Balanced and caressing.

Searing pork; underripe red fruit; roasted bird skins; gravy. Where are the juicy blackberry & terracotta notes of previous bottles?

What a dazzling display of Graves scents! Ash, new saddle leather, cigar tobacco and scorched earth remind me what pleasures can be had in the southern realms of the Left Bank. Such flesh on the palate, w/ rich and complex dark fruits that have wonderful penetration and presence through the finish. Tremendous success. Bravo! Drinkable now and certainly through 2020.
