Chateau Latour Martillac, AOC Pessac Léognan - Kressman Family

The estate derives its name from the tower that stands in the honor courtyard of the castle. It is a remnant of a fort built in the 12th century by the ancestors of Montesquieu. The structure then occupied a strategic position and controlled the road connecting Bordeaux to Toulouse. The stones from the fort will be used to construct the current castle at the end of the 18th century. Thanks to the long involvement of the various Kressmann generations with the property, recognized in 1953 by the Classification of Graves, the wines of Château Latour-Martillac are now among the references of the Pessac-Léognan appellation. The establishment of a genuine range of wines originated with Tristan and Loïc. Located in the heart of the village of Martillac, not far from some residences, Château Latour-Martillac has been committed for several years to evolving its agricultural practices to better respect the local fauna and flora.
