Château Latour-Martillac 2022

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2022 Latour Martillac is darker and more somber than during the en primeur tasting, revealing aromas of spices, dark berries and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, round and supple, it's juicy with good depth at the core, an assertive tannic frame and a long, ethereal, delicately spicy finish. This is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot and 8% Petit Verdot.

Cassis, blackcurrants, smoky tobacco, and scorched earth notes all emerge from the 2022 Château Latour-Martillac, a remarkably pure, medium to full-bodied Pessac-Léognan that has a great mid-palate, pure, polished tannins, no hard edges, and a great finish. Based on 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, and the balance Petit Verdot, it's a brilliant 2022 that should be snatched up by readers.

James Suckling

An attractive Latour-Martillac showing ripe black cherries, dark plums and touches of cigar and fine spices. An underlying mineral twist makes it even more interesting. Juicy and ripe but fresh, with a medium to full body and a matrix of fine, firm tannins beneath the fruit, which shows good fleshiness. Beautifully balanced and long. Drink from 2027.
