Description

Chateau Latour Martillac is one of the most recognizable chateaux in Pessac Leognan. This is because of the famous tower that rests in front of the chateau. In fact, the tower is where the property found the first part of its name. While the property was first developed in the 12th century, the tower is the only section from the original, small, fortified castle.

Today, the 6 children of Jean Kressmann own the domain and continue on the family tradition. Tristan and Loïc, the two younger sons, manage the estate with the assistance of the best wine consultants in Bordeaux. With each following vintage they produce the best from this authentic Graves soil.

Tasting Notes

Grape Blend: 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Semillon

The 2016 Latour-Martillac, pale yellow colour with sparkling highlights. Complex, aromatics aromas of both floral (verbena, honeysuckle) and some exotic fruits (passion fruit) and lemon. The palate is beautifully fresh, balanced by a delicious creaminess. In the mouth there is an elegance with the same complex, fruity aromas of white peach and ripe apricots, the floral note of verbena and fresh mint. A remarkably long length on the finish
