and I would not expect it to hit its full plateau of maturity for another 3-5 years

impressive purity and a long finish

Larrivet Haut Brion - 2009 (750ml) Size:750ml with firm tanninsA sensational wine from this Pessac Leognan estate, the 2009 possesses notes of charcoal, graphite, roasted herbs, truffles, spice box, and luxurious quantities of black currant and black cherry fruit. Full bodied, impressively endowed. and well under the radar for most consumers, this outstanding wine is a sleeper of the vintage and well worth buying. It should drink well for 15 or more years.
