2019Château Lespault Martillac(White)

The estate is situated in Martillac and belongs to the family of Jean-Claude Bolleau. The owners have left the vinification and management of the vineyards to Mr. Olivier Bernard, also owner of Dom. De Chevalier. He and his team are determined to make this wine one of the pearls of the appellation. The manner of work is exactly the same as at Dom. De Chevalier: ploughing and treating the soil, handling of the grapes parcel by parcel, manual harvest, small barrels for parcel vinification, no use of pomps, riping of the whine wine on the ‘lees’ = (sediment of fermentation cells in the wine), mixing the ‘lee’ with the juice to obtain a better taste, etc… In short, everything is done to obtain a great white wine. Besides, it is way cheaper than its big brother (Dom. De Chevalier). Only 3000 bottles of this delicacy are made.
