Tasting Notes

The 2023 Château Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is terrific, with ripe, exotic fruit balanced by a beautiful sense of minerality and a kiss of good reduction. Orange blossom, grilled pineapple, and floral notes all define this beauty, and it has the sun-kissed fruit of the vintage, with good acidity and flawless balance. Based on 86% Sauvignon and 14% Semillon, aging in 75% new oak, this is a brilliant white in the vintage that readers should snatch up.

Score: 93 - 95

Enjoyable, well judged grilled oak, clear weight through the palate without being heavy, citrus, peach, oyster shell minerality. Amphoras and large sized oak casks for ageing.

Score: 93

Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2024-2032 02 May 2024

The 2023 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is a rich, exotic wine. Tangerine peel, spice, lemon confit and passion fruit build as this explosive, resonant white shows off its considerable pedigree. All the elements are so well balanced. Readers should expect a pretty overt style.

Score: 94 - 96

Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2040-2043 30 April 2024

A blend of 95% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Sémillon, matured in 25% new 500-liter barrels and 75% new standard barrels, the 2023 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc evokes aromas of confit citrus, white peach, verbena and spring flowers, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and round palate that’s perfectly balanced with racy acids and a long, mouthwatering finish. As usual, this is an excellent result. - Tasted by Yohan Castaing

William Kelley, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 26 April 2024

A real Pessac white with white peach, lemongrass and green apple. Excellent energy. Medium body. Solid finish. Hints of stone and salt at the end. 75% sauvignon blanc and 25% semillon.
