94 points James Suckling: "Beautiful aromas of blackcurrants, blackberries and dark chocolate. Some hot stones. Full-bodied, dense and chewy yet polished and juicy. Shows pretty length and density. Very clean and focused. Precise. Better in 2021. (4/14/18)"
93 points Jane Anson (Decanter): " The grapes here come from the same plots as the grand vin, selected on tasting. It has rich and powerful fruits with an inky feel and cedar and graphite touches. It's an excellent second wine with real ageing potential. I love the confidence and sexiness of these wines. Drinking Window: 2023-2036. (Dec 2017)"
92+ points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2015 Le Petit Haut Lafitte is another terrific wine from Smith Haut Lafitte. Here, Cabernet Sauvignon speaks with authority. Black cherry, leather, earth, licorice and grilled herbs are all laced together, but it is the wine's pure power and structure that stand out most. Readers should plan on cellaring the 2015 for at least a few years, as it is far from an easygoing second wine. Drink: 2020-2035. (Feb 2018)"
