The 2020 Latour-Martillac has an impressive, quite engaging bouquet with blackberry, incense, graphite and faint touches of black olive. This is very harmonious and well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, very well balanced, quite saline with a poised and quite persistent finish. Quintessentially Pessac-Léognan, this has a bright future ahead. 94 points

The 2020 Latour-Martillac offers up a heady mix of dark red and black fruit intermingled with tobacco, cedar, scorched earth, gravel and chocolate. This mid-weight, vibrant Pessac-Leognan is a bit somber in character, but it certainly is not lacking in personality. The richness of the Cabernet is quite evident today. 92 points
