Chateau Lespault-Martillac 2020

__
Decanter: 91
Tight pencil lead, this is sleek and punchy, with cassis and bilberry fruit, all grilled up with dried herbs and cedar. Needs to soften over ageing but there is a lot to enjoy here.
Vinous: 93
The 2020 Lespault-Martillac is plump, juicy and wonderfully expressive. Ripe red cherry/red plum, orange zest cinnamon and crushed flowers fill out the layers in a succulent, vibrant Lespault that will drink well right out of the gate. The 2020 is a wine of total allure.
James Suckling: 93
A beautifully crafted young red with iodine and crushed stone to the purple fruit. Medium-bodied with firm, polished texture. Flavorful finish.
