Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2019

Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion, 2019
Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux

A compelling red blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 15% Cabernet Franc offers a taste characterized by rich, dark fruits, velvety tannins, and a long, fragrant finish. It features notes of blackcurrant, redcurrant, and plum, complemented by hints of sauteed herbs and tobacco leaf. The wine is full-bodied with a good balance of fruit and freshness, and the tannins are very firm, ripe, and velvety. 

This is a well-structured and balanced wine with tannins are well-integrated that contributes to a smooth and velvety texture. The 2019 vintage is considered a great Bordeaux vintage, alongside 2018 and 2020.

1st Growth Bordeaux comparison. Young, bold and bit more herbaceous than the rest and would benefit the most from good years lying down. Great potential. — a month ago
