Country: France / Les Hauts de Larrivet Haut-Brion
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc Bordeaux
Winery: Château Larrivet Haut-Brion / Pessac-Léognan
This ripe wine, from young vines, has softened its Sauvignon Blanc herbal character and developed ripe apricots and a delicious richness. The wood-aging shows, although not so as to hide the fruit and the tighter, nervy texture. Still developing, it will be best from 2018.
