Château Larrivet Haut-Brion (blanc) 2020 – Pessac-Léognan

The nose is fresh, aromatic, finely tight and offers a nice breadth of the aromatic palette. It reveals notes of vine peach, fresh mango and slight hints of bright yellow berries associated with a touch of apricot, verbena/fresh sage, a discreet racy hint of gravels as well as an imperceptible almost saline hint (in the background) and sap. The mouth is fresh, balanced and offers accuracy, fattiness, roundness, airiness, a nice acidity, stretchiness, a fine straightness as well as a nice energy. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy apple, quince and a hint of apricot associated with touches of bright/juicy small yellow fruits as well as hints of flowers, sweet spices, a fine hint almost salty and with an imperceptible almost pastry hint in the background. Good length.
