90-92 points Robert Parker: "Another sleeper of the vintage, the 2008 is one of the strongest efforts yet produced at Larrivet Haut-Brion. A classic Graves bouquet of earth, camphor, subtle barbecue smoke, and sweet red and black currants is followed by a lush, richly fruity, medium to full-bodied wine displaying superb purity, a beguiling texture, and a long finish. It should drink exceptionally well young, and evolve for 12-15 years." (04/09) 87-90 points Wine Spectator: "Crushed blackberry and licorice aromas follow through to a full body, with soft tannins and a caressing finish." (04/09) K&L's notes - *+ Elegant wine with earthy notes and plenty of minerality on the palate. Soft and very ripe. Please note - 2008 Bordeaux futures are not in stock, but will arrive between Jan 2011 and Dec 2011 We will contact you for shipping instructions.
