Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc Pessac-Leognan 2022 PRE-ARRIVAL

Pre-arrival. Estimated to be available December 2024.

The château, originally known as Domaine de Canolle in the 19th century, was renamed in 1874 and gained prestige under the Haut-Brion name, though it operates independently. Over time, the estate has flourished, focusing on producing distinctive blends of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon,

96 Points James Suckling 
This is solid with dried pineapple, grapefruit and apple character. It’s full-bodied with fantastic structure and depth. Phenolics are all there. Serious. 86% sauvignon and the rest semillon.

94 Points Jeb Dunnuck
The 2022 Château Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is going to be outstanding, if not more. Offering a vivid gold hue as well as ample citrus, orange blossom, mint, and some honeyed, mineral notes, it's medium-bodied, has good acidity, and terrific overall balance. Despite coming from a hot, stressful year, this is lively, pure, and beautifully done. Tasted twice.

94 Points Vinous 
The 2022 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc is a wild, exotic wine. Passionfruit, pineapple, white flowers and tangerine oil lend a distinctly tropical profile. The Blanc is exuberant and effusive, a bit out of control, but in a good way.

93 Points Wine Advocate
Aromas of spices, lemon oil, lime tree, verbena, exotic, menthol and iodine introduce the 2022 Larrivet Haut-Brion Blanc, a medium to full-bodied, seamless and sapid wine with a succulent core of fruit and a penetrating, fresh and saline finish. This blend of 86% Sauvignon Blanc and 14% Sémillon, maturing in 70% new oak and 30% wood tank or foudres, is a strong effort.
