Really a Grand Vin de Bordeaux. You know that a flower was named after this wine? The Rose Demoiselles de Larrivet Haut Brion. How cool is that? — 7 years ago
Phenomenal everyday wine! Delicious with a strong appricot flavor. Sweet with a hint of tart flavor. Light and enjoyable! — 7 years ago
In Bordeaux tasting. Incredibly bright floral. Lingers beautifully. — 8 years ago
Clearly aged, but still had some fruit and exotic notes of a wonderful wine — 9 years ago
Very light, unoaked flavour — 10 years ago
Deep honeyed with complex nutty flavor. Balanced with plenty of life left. The complexity ratio is SB and Semillion is in full flower. One of Woltners best even at 37 years of age. — 10 years ago

It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a youngster from Pessac Léognan in Bordeaux.
A beautiful color of dark ruby with a wide reddish/ brick rim.
Pronounced nose of blueberries, black currants, plums, cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, spices, leather, earth, forest floor, dark chocolates, light bell pepper, barnyard, bitter vegetables, river rocks and black pepper.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with plums, cherries, currants, blueberries, wood, light vanilla, earth, pencil lead, wet leaves, forest floor, smoke, green vegetables, herbs, spices and black pepper.
Medium plus on the finish with medium minus tannins and tangy raspberries.
This left bank Bordeaux is already drinking very nicely now, although still young. Showing nice balance and elegance with nice texture. The nose is really special, and I kept on smelling on it for a long time.
Needs a couple of hours to open up properly. Still very earthy with lots of vegetable notes. The tangy ending makes it interesting.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with cheeses and crackers.
Good now and will be better in the next 15 years.
A good price/ value for a not so good vintage, as it is less than half the price of the 2010 vintage.
Wine Advocate 90 points.
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

Love this! Fresh squeezed lime, light grapefruit notes. A little peach and white pepper. This is a very well integrated wine. — 9 years ago
This wine is simple brilliant and ready to drink! The nose leads with hints of bright red fruits then quickly transitions to an earthy smell ripe with fresh rain. Tastes of subtle dark fruit, followed by mild tannins, with a lush mineral finish. We are pairing with mussels braised in a tomato confit, glazed pork belly, and classic steak and potatoes. This wine is certainly a top hit!!! — 10 years ago
Perfect right now. Pencil lead ect. Nice bordeaux. Drink up — 11 years ago

Dominus 94 won out this night. A little muted on the palate but smells right — 6 years ago
Along with the beautiful package, One Finds a deliciously, crisp. super floral. pretty well balanced dry white wine. Most of our friends would find it “too austere with its racy acidity circling around the outskirts. I love this wine. #Hammered — 6 years ago
Honey and spice, syrupy, super smooth with high tannins — 6 years ago

A lovely wine to drink with dinner that's not too sweet or too dry. It paired well with four different meals at our table. — 8 years ago
Excellent wine! — 9 years ago
Not sure if it's just in a dumb phase or didn't want to come out and play. Not very inspiring, last bottle was better. Out of OWC — 10 years ago
2001 still very nice! Improves still with some air. Looong finish. — 11 years ago
1992. Drank after haut brion and petrus 82 so no accurate comment here. Nose is typical pomerol, but the coating effect remains long n silky. Drink. — 11 years ago
