Neal Martin

The 2021 Latour-Martillac Blanc has a fresh and vibrant nose, crisp and citric with hints of lime and orange rind coming through with aeration. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, not quite as complex or mineral-driven as I hoped en primeur, but it has an attractive, praline-tinged finish of modest length. Fine. 91 points
