Château Larrivet Haut-Brion
Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion was acquired by the Gervoson family in 1987. They restored the estate's unity once again combining the Chateau 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 team of enthusiastic professionals has done a wonderful job of giving Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion back its superb reputation and the estate is once again universally recognised as one of the finest wines in the Pessac-Léognan appellation.
Description
A dense, dark, ruby-red colour. Floral aromas at first on the nose (peony, fading rose petals) and fruity. On swirling the glass, sweet spice and toffee notes are released. The palate is round and well balanced by silky tannins, without any harshness or bitterness. The finish is elegant with jammy compote red berry fruit and sweet spice notes.
Food Pairing
Enjoy with fillet on the bone and veal dishes. Braised turbot /pork mignon and apple fruit purée.
