Since 1580 this estate has been exclusively managed and owned by women from the same family and the 21st century is no exception to the rule: Madame Huguette CARLSBERG took over the reins of the estate on the death of her mother Viscountess Sabine de CARHEIL. Today it is we, Armelle CARLSBERG, Sabine CARLSBERG and Bérangère TESSERON, her daughters and her granddaughter, who continue the magical story of LARRIVAUX.

Tasting Notes

Beautifully balanced with good concentration of blackcurrant and cassis fruit. Finish is lightly spiced and velvety smooth. The nose is scented with red fruits - sour cherries - and delicate oak notes which blend seemelessly with the riper fruit flavours on the palate. The wine is supple, balanced and round with lovely concentration.

Press Review

DECANTER : 87/100
"This has really attractive punch on the attack, with high aromatics of white pepper spice. There
is lots to recommend here, but it closes through the mid-palate and is a little dry on the finish.
It's Merlot dominant, although there is an almost equal amount of Cabernet Franc alongside the
Petit Verdot, which contributes to the lovely cinnamon spice. Owned by Bérangère Tesseron,
the wife of Basile at Château Lafon-Rochet, who is the latest in a long line of women owners at
the property. The vineyard is located in Cissac-Médoc, close to Pauillac."
