James Suckling 93pt

Aromas of toasted lemon, grapefruit zest, dried pineapple, flint and smoked almond. Honey, too. It's medium-to full-bodied with crisp acidity and intense layers of dried fruit. Excellent tension.

The 2018 Le Petit Haut Lafitte Blanc is driven by Sauvignon Blanc, which lends brightness and energy. Airy and lifted in the glass, the 2018 offers lovely translucence. Hints of dried flowers, almond, green apple and mint linger nicely on the close.

Wine Advocate 91pt

The 2018 Le Petit Haut Lafitte Blanc is a blend of 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon, matured in 50% new oak barriques. It offers up enticing aromas of green guava, fresh pineapples, ripe pears and passion fruit with suggestions of lemongrass and chalk dust. The medium to full-bodied palate bursts with tropical fruit and fresh pear-inspired flavors with a satiny texture and just enough freshness, finishing with a spicy kick.

Wine Enthusiast 93pt

One of two second white wines from this top estate, this has a ripe pineapple and apple character that is enhanced by wood aging. Rich and full in the mouth, it is spicy and likely to be ready from 2022.

Wine Spectator 90pt

This has a plump note of white peach, along with a racy mix of herb and citrus flavors, ending with everything in unison on the juicy finish. Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. Drink now through 2022.
