Château Le Thil owns a vineyard of about 20 hectares classified as A.O.C. Pessac-Léognan. Fourteen of those hectares are dedicated to the Les Reflets cuvée, produced on gravelly soil. This wine features fruit aromas (cherry, wild blackberry, blackcurrant) and floral notes (violet, lilac). Subtle toasty notes complement the bouquet, along with hints of pepper and vanilla. A cuvée that’s right on trend!

Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

In 2012, Florence and Daniel Cathiard acquired the 12 hectares of Thil Comte Clary, which adjoins their classified growth, Smith Haut-Lafitte: three hectares of white wine, divided equally between Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, and nearly nine hectares of red wine, with a very high proportion of Merlot. This estate now benefits from the expertise of the Smith team. The wines are refined, charming, and perfectly balanced.
