Since 1580, this domain has been exclusively managed and owned by women of the same family. Today it is Armelle Carlsberg, Sabine Carlsberg and Bérangère Tesseron who continue the magical story of Larrivaux. Larivaux is located in the commune of Cissac Médoc, in the Haut-Medoc appellation, at the gates of the prestigious Saint-Estèphe appellation. The very clayey terroir gives power, elegance and balance to the wines, not to mention finesse! Winemaking Vinification at low temperature.
