Gorgeous nose, pineapple, passionfruit and mandarin - smells so expressive. Fully flavoured on the palate, this is a rich and heady wine filled with fruit and texture. The frame is large and structured and given spicy edges from the wood ageing. Feels round and alive. Still very youthful with bright lemon, grapefruit and mango touches. Despite its power and concentration it's polished and quite charming with precision and clarity on show. Tasted twice. 3.17pH. ... More details

Vibrant nose of grapefruit, pomelo, dried apple, hazelnut skin and juniper berry. It’s medium-bodied with vibrant acidity. Excellent texture and tension with a long, spicy finish. Drink or hold.

The 2019 Château Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is brilliant, offering a racy, vibrant, yet concentrated style in its bright citrus, honeyed grapefruit, lime, and mandarin orange-like aromas and flavors. Incredibly complex aromatically, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a rich, layered, yet precise texture, good acidity, and a great finish. It's beautifully done and well worth seeking out. I can't imagine it not evolving for over a decade.

The 2019 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is incredibly distinctive, and delicious, too. Lemon confit, passionfruit, mint, jasmine and tropical accents are beautifully delineated in a creamy, layered Sauvignon Blanc/Sémillon blend that is so alluring. The 30% Sémillon comes through loud and clear in the wine's textural feel.

Lively, with a mix of lemon curd, gooseberry and fleur de sel notes providing a rapier aspect, while flashes of quinine and verbena add range on the finish. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now through 2023. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 2,083 cases made.

Rated 92 by Wine Advocate
The 2019 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is a broad, textural wine, revealing aromas of pear, orange oil, mango and gooseberries mingled with hints of lemongrass and smoke. Full-bodied, satiny and sensual, it's rich and enveloping, with a layered core of fruit and a long, resonant finish. Bottled under Diam 10, this is a riper, more dramatically styled white Bordeaux.

A ripe blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, this is full and concentrated. While it lacks some freshness, that is compensated by the ripe apricot and mango flavors touched by wood.. Drink now.

Rated 90 - The 2019 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc shows struck flint, lemons, and grapefruit with lime cordial and beeswax. Medium-bodied, it is crisp and intense with bags of citrus and savory flavors and great length. - The Wine Independent

Varietal: White Bordeaux

France is widely known as being the home of many of the world's finest white wines, and within France, the name which rings out across the wine world and is always associated with excellence of quality and flavor is Bordeaux. The white wines of the magnificent Bordeaux region are typically blended, and rely on the winemaker's skill and expertise to achieve the fine balance between the primary grape varietals used. Most blended white Bordeaux wines are made up of Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle varietals, although there are actually nine grapes officially allowed by French wine law for the inclusion in Bordeaux white wines. The other six are Sauvignon Gris, Merlot Blanc, Ugni Blanc, Colombard, Ondenc and Mauzac, although the use of these other grapes has been in steady decline over the past century.

Region: Bordeaux

There are few wine regions in the world with a reputation as glowing and well established as that of the Bordeaux, in France. Situated mainly around the Dordogne and Gironde rivers, Bordeaux makes the most of its humid climate and rich, clay and gravel based soils to grow some of the finest examples of red and white grape varietals on earth. Wineries in this region have been in operation for hundreds of years, and have carefully developed the expertise required for the production of carefully balanced and utterly delicious blended red and white wines, alongside some exceptional single variety bottles. Many of the chateaux found in Bordeaux have become household names, due to their prestige and the excellence of their products, grown with love and dedication by heritage wineries in this beautiful and special region.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
