La Revue du Vin de France 16-17 / 20 the4/29/2009 "Nous avons fait une demi-récolte!, soupire Tristan Kressmann, propriétaire... Mais c'est réussi!" Latour Martillac 2008 est un vin au nez puissant de fruits exotiques mûrs et à la belle minéralité, à la bouche harmonieuse, classique.
TAST 17 / 20 the4/23/2009 Beaucoup de délicatesse et de complexité aromatique dans un registre très frais de citron (non vert) et de verveine, excellente prise de bois, exemple parfait de léognan moderne mais fidèle à la tradition.
Jancis Robinson 16.50 / 20 byJancis Robinsonthe4/22/2009 Citrus and herbal, veering towards box tree aromas. Cedary and fresh. Intense and seemingly powerful on the palate though the power is mainly in the attack. Fades rather quickly aside from the extreme freshness on the finish. (JH) Drink 2010-13
Wine Advocate 81-83 / 100 byNeal Martinthe4/22/2009 This is lacking a little lift on the nose, less fruit concentration than others. The palate is simple, apply and fades towards the finish. Tasted April 2009.
Decanter Magazine 16 / 20 bySteven Spurrierthe4/15/2009 Pale lemony yellow, fresh herbaceous white fruits with hints of dry honey, clear and clean, good future. Drink 2011-15.
Wine Spectator 88-91 / 100 the4/7/2009 This offers a good core of fruit, with melon and lemon character. Full-bodied, with a balance of bright acidity and good fruit.
