Château Larrivet Haut-Brion was acquired by the Gervoson family in 1987. They restored the estate's unity, once again combining the Château, outbuildings, 13 hectares of grounds, and 42 hectares of vines under one owner, as well as replanting 18 hectares of land that had laid fallow.
A rich, waxy, opulent and complex Larrivet Blanc, showing richness and texture throughout. Sweet vanilla oak and spice supports a core of rich yet citric lemon peel, cut grass, fresh herbs and cut peach; this is a fruit-forward yet complex dry white. Great minerality and power, yet elegant and perfectly balanced. A worthy top score!
Harvested between the 25th August - 28th September with a yield of 22 hl/ha. Aged in 25% new oak 1/3 in 500lt demi muids for 12 months, with the remainder in 1 and 2 year barrels.
