"located 15 kilometres from bordeaux, in the southern part of the appellation, the larrivet-haut-brion vineyards adjoin those of haut-bailly. the name of the estate has undergone many changes over the two centuries of its history. initially called château de canolle, then la rivette, it took the name château haut-brion larrivet in 1874. the estate successively belonged to a bordeaux wine merchant and then to bordeaux wine lovers, the sons of mr. théodore conseil, who developed it. the vineyard then reached 50 hectares. in the 1930s, the estate was hit hard by the economic crisis and production was wiped out. in 1949, it took on its current name: château larrivet haut-brion, but it was under the impetus of christine and philippe gervoson that the estate was reconstituted, through the acquisition of original plots. major investments were made, and the wines gradually regained their former quality. from 1996 onwards, the fine vintages followed one another and the terroir was once again fully expressed: the larrivet haut-brion vineyard is indeed based on a clay soil composed of sand and iron alios. since 2007, the estate has been managed by bruno lemoine, general manager and winemaker. the reds, all finesse, are rather tannic but also very supple. always very well balanced, they reach their fullness after a few years of ageing."
