August 5, 2022 - Dark red with purplish tint.
The wine has a beautiful sweet nose of cassis, blueberries and plums.
On the palate the wine is full and round and just a tad better than the Couvent des Jacobins we tasted alongside it. Very fully extracted with a ton of fruit. A very nice wine. 90-91 pts.1 person found this helpful Comment -

June 17, 2022 - A rich, dark and deep purple. Aromas of ripe dark fruits, dark chocolate, licorice, leather, and vanilla. The wine is enticing with a full round palate of velvety tannins and generous freshness.

May 22, 2021 - 90 vvPunkte Mittleres Rubin. Rotfruchtige Nase, kräuterig, viele florale Töne. Im Auftakt gradlinig, zeigt eine knackige, dichte Frucht und durchaus Opulenz, das warme Jahr ist spürbar, die Gerbstoffe sind von sehr guter Qualität, vielleicht etwas gar hitzig im Abgang, endet dunkelfruchtig und mit Würze. Hat seit En Primeur deutlich zugelegt. 2025-2038+ (April 2021)

March 9, 2021 - Smoke, spice box, espresso, licorice, plums and cherries shoot from the glass with ease. Medium-bodied, soft, elegant and fresh, with a solid blast of sweet cherries, licorice and cocoa coated plums, this is probably the finest vintage of Chateau Larmande ever produced. The wine is a blend of 81% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon.
