Lagrave Martillac is the second wine from Château Latour-Martillac, a Grand Cru Classé of Graves.

The vineyard is located in the heart of an exceptional terroir, duly recognised in 1987 by the creation of the Pessac-Léognan appellation. The red Lagrave-Martillac was created in 1986.

The wine is crafted from the young vines of Château Latour-Martillac and benefits from the same vinification and ageing methods as the premium wines, under the watchful supervision of Tristan and Loïc Kressmann, managers of the estate.

This wine offers all the style of the premium wines of the vineyard.

Classification

Second Wine of Château Latour-Martillac.

Grape Varieties

Tasting

A lovely deep red colour with lively flashes. A discreet nose, with a slightly spicy and delicately woody fruitiness. The initial impression is pleasing, round and elegant. On the palate, the wine reveals its tight, subtle and complex tannins. The features of the grape varieties have been harmoniously enhanced by the barrel ageing. The long, smooth, flavoursome finish promises well for the years to come.
