Chateau Latour-Martillac Blanc 2020—
$70.53
The Story
The color is very pale, the wine fruity with aromas of white nectarine, lemon and passion fruit. The palate is concentrated, round, juicy with a touch of pear and almond. The finish is fresh, mineral, tasty and tense.
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast
This Graves classed growth offers richness and great aging potential. Its acidity from the dominant Sauvignon Blanc is balanced by the creamed-apple flavors of Sémillon. Together they give the wine density, richness and a fine future. Drink from 2025.
93 Points -James Suckling
This has aromas of grapefruit, cardamom, juniper, apricots, lemon curd and lemongrass. Zesty and spicy with excellent weight and ripeness too. Medium to full body. Lengthy and concentrated.
92 Points - Wine Spectator
Glistens with wet pebble, verbena, tarragon and lemon peel notes, along with gooseberry, grapefruit and white peach flavors. There's a lot to like in this wine. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
91 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Unwinding in the glass with aromas of pastry cream, grapefruit, beeswax and macadamia nut, the 2020 Latour Martillac Blanc is medium to full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, with ripe acids, chalky extract and a saline finish.
