A medium-bodied, textured and spicy white with lingering notes of sliced green apple, clove and fennel. Persistent and very fresh. Lengthy.

Showing brilliantly (as are most top whites from the vintage), the 2021 Château Lespault-Martillac Blanc is based on 80% Sauvignon and 20% Semillon, harvested between the 13th and 20th of September, that's still resting in 25% new French oak. It offers beautiful peach and pineapple-like fruits as well as medium-bodied richness, a terrific core of sweet fruit, nicely integrated acidity, and the focused, vibrant, classic style of the vintage front and center. I'd be happy with bottles in my cellar. 92-94+

Nez expressif, bien développé, fumé et fruité, bouche charnue, franche, avec beaucoup d’arômes, de rondeur et une grande vivacité. Bon équilibre.

Lespault-Martillac 2021 white is a colorful fruit salad twined by fragrances of grapefruit, kumquat, banana, and honey-dew melon, and garnished with a breath of sophora flower. The compact mineral notes and mild roundness harmonizes with each other. Take a full gulp, sit tight, and enjoy the refreshing sensation.

Flowers, lemon rind, orange blossom, green apples and spice create the nose. Fresh, creamy, fruity, juicy and lively, with a blast of green apples, pink grapefruit, tangerine and yellow citrus on your palate that hit everything just right. The wine blends 65% Sauvignon Blanc with 35% Semillon. Drink from 2023-2030. 92-92

The 2021 Lespault-Martillac Blanc has an attractive bouquet: white peach and chamomile, touches of citrus peel. The palate is well balanced with a nice bead of acidity, fine weight with a touch of a twist of sour lemon mixed with orange rind on the finish. Delicious. This should be ready just a few months post-bottling.

The 2021 Lespault-Martillac Blanc exhibits aromas of gooseberries, crisp orchard fruit, citrus zest and pastry cream, followed by a medium-bodied, fleshy and charming palate underpinned by lively acids and concluding with a saline finish.
