Professional reviews

Decanter (94)

Medium yellow in colour. Smoky, noble reduction at first, sesame seeds, then ripe yellow fruits and spices on the nose. Juicy, vibrant, with exceptional precision and length. A standout

A brilliant white based on 80% Sauvignon and 20% Semillon, aged in 70% new oak and 30% wooden vats, the 2024 Château Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc shows stone fruits, tons of classy matchstick-like reduction, and integrated oak. Medium-bodied, pure, and layered on the palate, it offers beautiful concentration and impressive length.

James Suckling (94)

A structured, dense and generous white with spiced apples, cedar and sweet spices on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity. Juicy fruit character here ,with a solid frame and a long focused finish.

Vinous (95)

93-95
The 2024 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is a potent, layered wine endowed with tremendous textural presence. Vinification and élevage in oak, with considerable bâtonnage, yields an especially rich, almost old-school-Burgundian character. This is a wine that will change perceptions about what white wines from Bordeaux are and what they can be.

Falstaff (93)

Very pale yellow-green, silver reflections. Fresh gooseberry, a hint of fine yeast, delicate pineapple, inviting bouquet. Delicate reduction, juicy, powerful, elegant, subtle sweetness, fine acidity, lingers, delicate wood nuances with caramel on the finish, very promising.
