Note di degustazione
The 2012 Lespault-Martillac is soft and open-knit, with the fruit pushed forward. Sweet red cherry, pomegranate, mint, spice and crushed flowers are all laced together nicely. The 2012 is 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon. Much of the wine's juicy personality comes from the high presence of Merlot. Since 2009 Lespault-Martillac has been managed by Oliver Bernard and his team at Domaine de Chevalier.

This property, which is owned by Domaine de Chevalier, has produced a wine that is a blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a very supple-textured, medium to full-bodied wine, with an impressively saturated ruby/purple color. The graphite, barbecue smoke, blackcurrants and black cherries make for an intriguing and fascinating medium to full-bodied wine with plenty of velvety texture. This is lush, plump, very complex and promising. Drink it over the next 10-15 years.
Rich and dense. Not dry at all and you have to seek the acidity. This wine almost taunts you – take notice of me! (JR)
This is really impressive for the vintage with a wonderful core of fruit with blueberries, blackberries and dark chocolate. Full body, with well-integrated tannins and a long finish. Excellent. James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
