A bright, dense white with lots of dried-lemon, pear and apple character. Some vanilla and cream. It’s full-bodied and flavorful. Seriously structured.

Another extremely promising white wine from the vintage, this is fleshy and perky, packed with apricot and lemon juice. Great length and grip, this is standing up there with the best whites from this property, mouthwatering with personality. 10 months ageing in barrel with lees stirring. A yield of 33hl/ha. Drinking Window 2021 - 2032

The 2019 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is slightly deeper in colour compared to its peers. The bouquet is charming, replete with honeysuckle, lemon zest and white flower aromas that burst from the glass. The palate is vibrant on the entry with tangy orange rind and a saltiness that gets the saliva flowing on the finish. Drink over the next 10-20 years (if you can resist.)
The 2019 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is a rich, textured white. Apricot, orange confit, chamomile, sweet oak and lightly honeyed notes all grace this creamy, super-expressive dry white. The aromatics here are very tropical, luscious, and bold. Extroverted, racy and absolutely impeccable in its balance, the 2019 is a classy wine. The 2019 is 70% Sauvignon and 30% Sémillon aged in new oak, cask and cement.
