Latour Martillac Blanc Size:12x750ml the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer

the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr Crane Vineyard offers up a profound and singular nose of loam

with juicy redcurrant fruit and a punchy lift of freshness

The tannins are going to need time to soften

austere and built-to-age finale

culminating in a stupendously long finish that offers intense minerality

Latour Martillac Blanc Size:12x750ml the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon BeckstofferThe 2014 La Tour Martillac Blanc has a fresh and quite vibrant bouquet with light red apple, fresh pear and granitic aromas. The palate is well balanced with fresh acidity, with good weight on the stem ginger, quite saline finish. This is certainly one of the better dry white Bordeaux in this vintage. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Neal Martin
