Aromas of cedar and dark berries with blackberries and bramble berries. Full-bodied with velvety and polished tannins. Juicy and savory at the end. Hints of orange peel with tobacco. Drink or hold.

The 2020 Lespault-Martillac is a gorgeous, effusive wine. Succulent dark plum, blood orange, menthol, licorice, mocha and blood orange all flesh out in this ample, beautifully resonant Graves. All the elements are so well-balanced. Plush contours and silky tannins add to its immense charm. What a beautiful wine this is. The aromatics are especially on point.

The 2020 Lespault-Martillac offers up aromas of cherries, licorice and vine smoke, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively and polished palate that's defined by vibrancy of fruit. This attractive effort is produced by the Domaine de Chevalier team.
