Tasting Notes

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.

Robert Parker, Wine Advocate (176), April 2008

Tasted blind. Intense and voluptuous. Round and fresh and very flattering. Biscuity. Lots of both fruit and tannin but perhaps not that much subtlety. Very Graves. GV 13%
