Lemon, white flower and nettle, and that pungent Sauvignon Blanc note that evokes lime juice mixed with wasabi. Round, weighty, full of depth, yet lifted by the bright acidity. The finish is serious, saline and persistent. (NT 30/07/20)

Neal Martin
The 2017 Latour-Martillac Blanc has a well-defined bouquet, quite effervescent with scents of orange blossom, citrus lemon and subtle granite aromas. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, fresh and saline in the mouth with a precise, not flamboyant but "correct" finish that should evolve into something even more interesting with bottle age. This is the insiders` choice - just superb. 93 points
