93-94 points James Suckling: "Very spicy and intense, with dark berries and sweet tobacco. Full and velvety. Very long and intense. (4/19/11)"

92 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2010 Larrivet Haut-Brion has a very deep colour. It offers blackberry and black olives on the nose, hints of cassis and violet, a very engaging set of aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins. This is a gutsy, concentrated, powerful Margaux that has great purity and a velvety finish. Plush and sensual, this punches well above my expectations despite not reaching the heights of its peers. Drink: 2022-2045. (Apr 2020)"

92 points Wine Spectator: "Dense, winey and energetic, but also supple and alluring, with steeped plum and boysenberry fruit inlaid with hints of singed anise, violet and warm stone. The tarry finish strides with authority, revealing ample grip for cellaring. A strong showing for this estate in '10. Best from 2015 through 2028. (3/31/13)"

92 points Decanter: " Powerful and intense, with deep dark chocolate, black cherry and blackcurrant...black everything. It has more depth of flavour than the 2011 vintage, although both are exceptional wines with lots to offer. Very tannic, this is austere but doesn't show any bitterness. 65% of production was used in the grand vin, matured in 33% new oak. Drinking Window: 2018-2034. (Jul 2018)"
