What is in this wine, and where it grows
The wine
Chateau Larrivet Haut-Brion 2017 Wine (75cl) is recorded as a 2017 other wine made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot in Bordeaux, France.
Typical grape profile: Cabernet Sauvignon — Blackcurrant, cedar, graphite; ages well, especially in Bordeaux blends; Cabernet Franc — Red fruit with a signature herbaceous, peppery edge. The finished bottle can differ with vintage and winemaking.
The vineyard evidence
No verified vineyard or named parcel is linked yet. BottlePicker therefore does not assign a soil, elevation or site temperature to this bottle from its regional name alone.
Soil structure and vine density
No site-specific soil or planting-density record is available for this bottle.
Growing-temperature context
For general cultivar-level heat guidance, see the Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot growing profiles. BottlePicker does not apply a generic range to this bottle without a verified vineyard link.
Official geographic-register context
What the official register confirms about Bordeaux
BottlePicker found an exact region-name match in an official wine or spirits register. This establishes useful regional context; it does not by itself prove that this particular bottle is entitled to the designation. Check the producer label and specification for that claim.

Source-supplied bottle description
Retained as supporting identification copy; the structured facts and evidence links above are kept separate.
Drink it now or cellar for up to 15 years. It is recommended to decant it for half an hour. Owned by the Gervoson family since 1987, Château Larrivet Haut-Brion is located in the heart of Pessac Léognan, in the Bordeaux wine region. The estate extends over approximately 72 hectares of land, with vines of between 25 and 30 years of average age, planted on predominantly gravelly soil. Thanks also to the consultancy of Michel Rolland, Château Larrivet Haut-Brion is considered one of the most prestigious in Pessac Leognan. The wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. After fermentation which takes place in stainless steel vats and a maceration period lasting from 3 to 5 weeks, the finished wine is aged for 18 months in oak barrels (50% new). Château Larrivet Haut-Brion is a dark red wine with an intense and complex aromatic profile. The nose reveals fragrant aromas of ripe red fruit, especially cherry and ripe strawberry, followed by hints of flowers, coffee and tobacco. On the palate it is round and full. It has a strong acid streak and fine tannins. The finish is long and persistent and recalls smoky notes. It is an elegant wine, ready to drink now with a grilled steak but can be left in the cellar to evolve for a while.
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
