Château Lespault-Martillac Blanc: A Refined Pessac-Léognan Dry White

Representing the pinnacle of dry white Bordeaux, Château Lespault-Martillac Blanc hails from the famed gravel terroirs of Pessac-Léognan. Managed with meticulous care by the team from Domaine de Chevalier, this wine is a masterclass in blending Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, offering both immediate pleasure and impressive ageing potential. It’s a sophisticated addition to any cellar.

Tasting Notes & Character

• Colour: Brilliant pale yellow with a slight green tint.
• Aroma: Complex and rich, the bouquet offers exotic fruit (mango, yellow peach, apricot) and citrus zest, complemented by floral hints of acacia and a delicate, toasty beeswax character from its time in oak.
• Taste: The mouthfeel is notably full and suave, with a fleshy, unctuous texture balanced by crisp, refreshing acidity. The wine is intense, complex, and boasts a remarkably long, mineral and aromatic finish.

Food Pairing & Serving

Best served cool (11-12°C). This wine is perfectly suited to elevate classic British fine dining and seafood courses.
