Producer Information: Château Latour-Martillac
Château Latour-Martillac, situated in the heart of the Pessac-Léognan appellation within Bordeaux’s Graves region, traces its origins to the late 19th century when it was acquired by the Kressmann family, who remain at the helm today. The estate’s distinctive philosophy centers on meticulous vineyard management and a balanced blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot for reds, with Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc leading their whites. Their gravelly soils impart a signature minerality that sets their wines apart within Graves. Beyond their flagship grand vin, Château Latour-Martillac also crafts a second wine called Lagrave-Martillac, which reflects both terroir-driven precision and accessibility. The estate’s commitment to sustainable viticulture further underscores its deep connection to Bordeaux’s southern terroir and its ongoing influence in shaping Pessac-Léognan’s reputation for both red and white wines.

Bordeaux is a renowned wine region in France, celebrated for its diverse range of wines, primarily red and white varieties. The red wines are predominantly crafted from grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec, while the whites typically feature Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Bordeaux wines are characterized by their full-bodied to medium-bodied textures and complex flavor profiles that include notes of blackcurrant, plum, cherry, tobacco, and leather in reds; citrus zest and stone fruit in whites.
The unique terroir of Bordeaux contributes to its distinct aromas and flavors. Red Bordeaux often exhibits dark fruit aromas alongside herbal notes from Cabernet Sauvignon and floral hints from Merlot. In contrast, white Bordeaux showcases citrus and tropical fruit characteristics with a creamy or crisp texture. These wines pair beautifully with various foods: grilled meats complement the robust reds while seafood enhances the refreshing whites. Whether for special occasions or everyday dining experiences, Bordeaux offers a versatile selection that caters to diverse palates.
