Winemakers Notes
Latour-Martillac, a reference in the Pessac-Leognan appellation
The estate takes its name from the tower which stands in the main courtyard of the château; it is the remnant of a fort built in the 12th century by the ancestors of Montesquieu. The stones of the fort were used to build the existing château at the end of the 18th century.
In 1871, Edouard Kressmann, who had just founded his trading house in Bordeaux, fell in love with this estate. He was seduced by the quality of the white wines grown on a remarkable gravelly hilltop with marked relief and outstanding exposure.
Thanks to the long involvement of generations of the Kressmann family, and the recognition shown in 1953 by the classification of Graves, the wines of Château Latour-Martillac feature among the best of Pessac-Léognan.
The 2021 red vintage
is the second to be vinified in its entirety in the new cellar, which is now showing its full potential.
