Château Latour-Martillac 2022 Pessac-Léognan Rouge

Château Latour-Martillac Rouge 2022

グラーヴの骨格に、2022年の果実味。

第四紀のグラーヴ土壌が与える張りのある骨格と、2022年ならではの熟した果実味が重なります。濃い色調に紫の輝きを帯び、ブラックベリーや赤系果実のアロマにクローブのスパイスが続きます。口に含むとジューシーでありながら驚くほどフレッシュで、バランスに優れた仕上がり。高品質な新樽熟成が余韻を引き締め、胡椒のようなスパイス香が長く続きます。仔羊のローストや熟成コンテとともに。

Tasting note

The appearance is deep in color with a purple sheen. The nose is very powerful, with aromas of blackberry and red fruits followed by spicy nuances of clove. On the palate it is incredibly juicy yet incredibly fresh and well-balanced. The aftertaste is long and pleasantly peppery with a lingering spicy aroma.

Food pairing

Roast lamb, roast duck breast, aged Comté (over 18 months)
