Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion, Bordeaux, France, 2010

Refer to this: https://www.farrvintners.com/wine.php?wine=48039

The 2010 Larrivet Haut-Brion has a very deep colour. It offers blackberry and black olives on the nose, hints of cassis and violet, a very engaging set of aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins. This is a gutsy, concentrated, powerful Margaux that has great purity and a velvety finish. Plush and sensual, this punches well above my expectations despite not reaching the heights of its peers. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 10-Year On Bordeaux horizontal. Drink 2022-2045. – Neal Martin, vinous.com, April 2020, 92/100
