The vineyard
Château Lespault-Martillac is a Pessac-Léognan wine from a vineyard of which 8 hectares are dedicated to the production of red wines and 1.5 hectares to white wines. Averaging 40 years old, the vines are planted on deep gravel soils resting on clay-gravel subsoils.

A mild winter is followed by a wet spring without frost, promoting vigorous vine growth. A dry and hot summer allowed for beautiful maturity, while the harvest, carried out with precision until October 5, achieved an excellent level of quality.
