Reviewed April 2025Green stone fruit, kiwis, gooseberries, star fruit and a touch of cream on the nose. Pure and bright, with a medium to full body and a nice balance of fruit intensity and creaminess with the high acidity. Crunchy and flavorful at the same time. Bright, creamy and very long. 100% sauvignon blanc. (ZS)

Really varietal apple and peas, elderflower but also with lots of white pear aromatics too. Clean, crisp and sapid. Bright and zesty, relatively sleek and lightweight, but a nice shot of citrus juice with salty edges. You can imagine eating oysters and drinking this. Mouthwatering acidity makes this easy to enjoy. Ageing 50% in new oak barrels. 3.15pH. (GH)

Coming from 100% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2024 Les Hauts De Smith Blanc has bright lemon and pink grapefruit fruit as well as some minty and floral nuances on the nose. These carry to a vibrant, medium-bodied, crisp, yet nicely balanced and textured white that has a distinct salinity on the finish.

The 2024 Les Hauts de Smith Blanc, 100% Sauvignon Blanc, is terrific. Aromatic and deep, with notable balance, the 2024 screams with character. Lemon confit, almond, white pepper, slate and mint lend notable brightness throughout. Pretty tropical overtones and a kiss of French oak linger. (AG)
