Chateau Larrivet Haut Brion Rouge 2005

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (90)

Exhibiting classic Graves aromas of smoky, volcanic, scorched earth, herbs, chocolate, and black cherries, Larrivet Haut-Brion’s dense ruby/purple-colored 2005 possesses superb depth, and silky yet abundant tannins. It is an excellent effort displaying a provocative bouquet as well as 15 or more years of aging potential.

Winespectator (88)

Very earthy, but blows off. Intense aromas of game, spice, chocolate and dark fruit. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long finish. Slightly one-dimensional on the palate, but interesting.
