Benefits that will delight wine enthusiasts and entrepreneurs

Each magnum is finely engraved in gold, personally hand-signed by the owner, numbered and presented in a radiata pine box. In addition to the physical bottle, each NFT will offer the first buyers the opportunity to visit the castle.
In addition, four lucky buyers will be selected for a private tour of the estate, followed by a special lunch with the owners, in the Cathiard family’s personal castle.

About Château Smith Haut Lafitte
Acquired by the Cathiard family in 1990, the castle underwent a revival under their leadership. Nestled in the heart of the Pessac-Léognan appellation, this vineyard is distinguished by its gravel terroir, which imbues the wines with striking complexity and depth. The property will be officially classified as a Graves Grand Cru in 1953. The vineyard extends over 78 hectares in one piece, including 11 hectares of white wine, and is characterized by its Günzienne gravel soil which gives the wines surprising and different characteristics. The château offers its Grand Cru Classé in red and white as well as its two second wines Les Hauts de Smith and Le Petit Haut Lafitte. Rated 100 by Vert de Vin, XL Vins and Jeb Dunnuck, Château Smith Haut Lafitte represents excellence with a controlled and balanced wine.
