Cool-toned cassis and black cherry lead in Chateau Larrivaux 2016, layered with hints of cedar, mint and gentle tobacco. The palate is focused and medium-bodied, with ripe yet firmly structured tannins that frame the dark plum and currant fruit and give the wine a classic, quietly polished Haut-Médoc character. A touch of spice on the finish suggests it will continue to gain complexity with a few more years in bottle.
Roast lamb with garlic and herbs; grilled entrecôte steak; duck breast with a red wine reduction
