Description
Château Lariveau 2016 from Canon-Fronsac. Cabernet Franc/Merlot blend. Only recently released.
Old school style, restrained fruit, blackberries and cassis, tar, licorice, depth and density, needs time to open up. Palate is divine! Medium full, lots of very fine matter, plenty of tannin grip bodes well for the cellar. Very fine package entering the early stages of its prime. A classic vintage of this fabulous wine.
Drink now to 2035.
