2004 Les Demoiselles Larrivet Haut-Brion
Pessac-Leognan. Grand Vin de Graves Red.
50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon.
A moderately deep colour, maturity at the rim already, with a little evolution also apparent, with some tobacco notes among the other mineral elements. Nice, fresh, light, a little compact texture through the midpalate, but otherwise rather soft and open. Nicely balanced though. Ripe, approachable, in fact ready now.
2004 Les Demoiselles Larrivet Haut-Brion
Pessac-Leognan. Grand Vin de Graves White.
50% Sauvignon Blanc, 50% Semillon.
Some new oak and notes of fennel on the nose, lovely, open and fresh, a touch green, some green capsicum, but a rounded, harmonious character nevertheless. Full, flavoursome, a touch creamy, but green like the nose. Chalky, shellfish crispness, certainly fresh and clean. Uncomplicated.
