Bordeaux | 2 | 91 (VN (NM)) | HK$2,585.00 | |||||
Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2020 Les Perrières de Lafleur is more backward than the 2019 with blackberry and light estuarine scents plus a dab of shucked oyster shell in the background. The palate is beautifully balanced, gentle but firm in terms of grip, with wonderful poise and density on the finish. This will probably require longer in bottle than the previous vintage, but it will reward the patient. Tasted from ex-château magnum at Kate & Kon's 40-Year vertical in Austria. |

Wine Advocate (94)The cooler vintage has lent the 2021 Les Perrières de Lafleur an even greater sense of transparency than preceding vintages, even if this bottling has always had a remarkably pronounced site signature. Unfurling in the glass with deep aromas of raspberries, plums, Indian spices, burning embers and licorice, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with beautifully refined tannins, lively acids and an intensely mineral finish. |

Wine Enthusiast (91)This is a soft wine, with dominating fruit. It has flavors of black currant and spice, firm tannins and an attractive ripe center. |

James Suckling (94-95)Very fine, well integrated tannins with blackberry, dark chocolate and blackcurrant. It’s full and extremely racy. One of the finest second wines. |

Vinous - Ian D'Agata (85-88)Good dark red. Aromas of cassis, licorice and coffee, lifted by a graphite note. Fragrant and silky, with strong blackcurrant, herb and coffee notes. Substantial, late-arriving tannins give grip to the finish, but I still feel that this wine will provide enjoyable drinking in the near term and will not be for extended aging. |

Bordeaux | 12 | 90-92 (VN (AG)) | HK$1,195.00 | |||||
Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90-92)The 2013 Lespault-Martillac is striking. Freshly cut flowers, violets, crushed rocks, plums and graphite all burst from the glass in a vibrant yet juicy wine loaded with class and personality. The 2013 is absolutely crystalline in its beauty. It is also easily one of the best wines of the vintage in its class. Readers who enjoy vibrant, mineral-driven reds will adore the Lespault-Martillac in this vintage. The 2013 is 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon. |

James Suckling (92-93)Rich and round with all the merlot giving a bounty of fruit and earth yet in a reserved way. Full-bodied, juicy and savory. Long finish. |

Bordeaux | 36 | 94 (VN (AG)) | HK$1,425.00 | |||||
Vinous - Antonio Galloni (94)The 2017 Lespault-Martillac is a gorgeous, understated wine, just as it was en primeur. Bright, floral and understated, the 2017 is impeccable from start to finish. Once again, the purity of the red-toned fruit is really compelling. The Lespault-Martillac is not obvious or overt wine, but instead it makes its case with a total sense of refinement. It is very clearly one of the wines of the vintage. |

Bordeaux | 13 | 92 (VN (AG)) | HK$1,510.00 | |||||
Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92)The 2018 Lespault-Martillac is bright, punchy and full of character. I tasted the 2018 three times from barrel and never found it convincing. The bottled wine, on the other hand, is terrific. Inky red fruit, blood orange, spice, mint and rose petal all open with time. The 2018 is not super complex, but it is silky, well-balanced and very easy to enjoy. Best of all, readers can enjoy it with minimal cellaring. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (91-93)The 2020 Lespault-Martillac is plump, juicy and wonderfully expressive. Ripe red cherry/red plum, orange zest cinnamon and crushed flowers fill out the layers in a succulent, vibrant Lespault that will drink well right out of the gate. The 2020 is a wine of total allure. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90-92)The 2021 Lespault-Martillac is packed with inky red/purplish fruit, spice and mocha. There's more Cabernet Sauvignon than usual in this year's blend, and that comes through in the wine's aromatic profile. The 2021 is not super complex, but it is supremely delicious and very easy to like. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2019 Lestage-Simon has a composed bouquet of blackberry, tertiary and pencil box aromas that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and ripe, with juicy tannins and good weight. Fleshy and yet at the same time, quite tender on the finish. This is a well-made Haut-Médoc. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (90-92)The 2020 Lestage Simon has good intensity on the nose, featuring cedar- and tobacco-infused black fruit that displays commendable intensity and delineation. The medium-bodied palate offers grainy tannins and crisp acidity. Very classic in style, with a grippy, slightly oaky finish. There is a boldness to this Haut-Médoc that I appreciate, but cellar it for 3-4 years. |

Bordeaux | 20 | 87-89 (VN (NM)) | HK$1,195.00 | |||||
Vinous - Neal Martin (87-89)The 2021 Lestage Simon has quite a dense bouquet with blackberry, briar and light scorched earthy scents. The palate is medium-bodied with dry tannins, quit compared and grippy, with just about sufficient fruit to keep everything balanced on the finish. It will require a prudent barrel maturation. |
