    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Château Larrivet Haut-Brion is a meticulous process, blending tradition with modern techniques. After a manual harvest, the grapes are carefully sorted and destemmed. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing for precise temperature management. The wine is then aged in oak barrels, some of which are new, for 12 to 18 months. This aging process adds complexity and structure to the wine while preserving its fruitiness. The blends are carefully crafted, aiming to create perfect harmony between the grape varieties.
