Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (92)

A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot and 8% Petit Verdot, the 2022 Latour Martillac displays aromas of cassis, blueberry, raspberry, licorice, menthol, iris and violet. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is perfectly balanced, fleshy in the mid-palate and seamless with a moderately concentrated and elegant texture. The new winery allows for more accuracy during the winemaking process, and it is noticeable.

James Suckling (95)

Very polished and focused this year with blackberry and blueberry character, as well as blackcurrants. Medium body. Fine tannins. Lovely length.

Jancis Robinson (17)

50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot. Cask sample.
Mid purplish crimson. Fragrant, almost floral and appealing on the nose. Mouth-filling and lifted with excellent balance. Pure Graves with an attractive stony quality on the refreshing finish. You would never guess this is the product of a hot, dry growing season. Fine tannins in abundance but by no means aggressive. (JR)

Falstaff (93)

Deep dark ruby garnet colour with opaque core and purple reflections, delicate brightening on the rim. Subtle noble oak savouriness, blackberries, black cherries, inviting bouquet. Juicy, elegant, heart cherries, good freshness, mineral and balanced, a fine, versatile food wine.

Wine Enthusiast (94)

93-95 Barrel sample. The wine is ripe, a product of the hot, dry year. But it still manages to retain a fresh, spicy character that will develop as the wood aging moves forward.
