Description

the 1975 Château Larrivet Haut-Brion is a fine Bordeaux wine from the renowned Graves region, made just before the establishment of the official Pessac-Léognan designation. The 1975 vintage is celebrated for its structure and ageing potential, and this bottle is now showing mature complexity with a graceful evolution in the glass.

Tasting notes:
The bouquet is expressive with aromas of cigar box, dried rose petals, black tea, and forest mushroom. On the palate, savour a fine balance between aged tannins and tertiary notes of dried plum, fig, and savoury spice. The finish is long, dry, and evocative, making this a compelling choice for seasoned wine lovers.

About Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion:
The estate's origins date back to 1840, initially known as Château de Canolle. It underwent several name changes—La Rivette, Brion-Larrivet—before being renamed Château Larrivet Haut-Brion in 1874 by then-owner Ernest Laurent, a Bordeaux wine merchant. The inclusion of "Haut-Brion" in the name led to legal disputes with the renowned Château Haut-Brion, resulting in a compromise that allowed the name provided "Haut-Brion" appeared at the end.
