It was first mentioned in wine literature over 140 years ago, in the 1868 edition of “Bordeaux et Ses Vins”, published by Féret, for both its red and white wines. Château Langlet was purchased in 1999 by the Kressman family, owners of the renowned Chateau Latour-Martillac in Pessac Leognan. A boutique property with a planted surface of 5.1 hectares, Chateau Langlet employs traditional cultivation and vinification methods to produce excellent wines. The wine consultant s head of the faculty at the Bordeaux University School of Oenology, Professor Denis Dubourdieu, who is considered one of the greatest white wine makers alive today. Production of the white graves is limited as only 0.6 hectares are planted with sauvignon blanc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNice pale straw-like yellow with golden highlights. Crisp, powerful, intensely fruity nose with aromas of citrus fruits, white peaches, and pineapple. Fresh on the palate. A round, ample wine with good structure and balance; flavors of white fruits. The oak gives good structure, but is not overwhelming. Nice long finish. Overall, an elegant and highly refined wine. An excellent Graves in its price range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVineyard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e0.7 hectares.\u003cbr\u003eThe vineyards boast a terroir of deep gravel left by glaciers\u003cbr\u003eduring the last ice age.\u003cbr\u003eThe vines have magnificent exposure to the sun, on the summit of a small hill of deeply entrenched gravel.\u003cbr\u003eAverage vine age of 25 years.\u003cbr\u003eDensity of 5500 vines\/hectare.\u003cbr\u003eYield of 48 Hl\/hectare.\u003cbr\u003eSustainable agricultural practices.\u003cbr\u003eDebudding, leaf thinning, and green harvest to produce the best possible grapes.\u003cbr\u003eManual harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional winemaking methods with 9-10 months of aging in new oak barrels.\u003cbr\u003eGrapes sorted manually.\u003cbr\u003eVinification by parcel.\u003cbr\u003eThermo-regulated stainless steel vats.\u003cbr\u003ePumping over twice daily.\u003cbr\u003eAged 9-10 months in French oak barrels. 20% new oak. 4 coopers used.\u003cbr\u003eNo filtering.
