Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion 2019 – Pessac-Léognan

The nose is aromatic and offers elegance, a good definition as well as a very fine richness (full of balance). It reveals notes of zests, apple, small notes of flint/minerality associated with small touches of toasted, almond, yellow peach as well as discreet hints of juicy quince, a subtle hint of flowers/jasmin and an imperceptible hint of lemongrass. The palate is fruity, elegant, well-balanced and offers a good definition, roundness, fat, gourmandize and a fine acidulous frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/pulpy lemon, pulpy peach, small notes of quenette associated with a touch of lychee, peach flowers, quince, fine hints of mandarine zests as well as discreet hints of sweet spices and flint. Good length.
