Chateau Malescot St. Exupery

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 95

Château Malescot Saint Exupery’s history can be traced all the way back to 1616, and since then it has been seized during the French Revolution, and confiscated after auction during World War I. Today the third growth estate is run by the Zuger family who continue to make wines under the lead of Michel Rolland. Its 30-hectare vineyard comprises Cabernet Sauvignon (c.50%), Merlot (c.35%), Cabernet Franc (c.10%) and Petit Verdot (c.5%) and sits on a terroir of gravel, chalk and clay soils with iron deposits. The wine is aged in 80-100% new French oak for 14-16 months. When young its grand vin is light and supple, but after a few years of bottle ageing it opens up to reveal both a silky, supple texture and gorgeous perfume.
Original price was: £455.00.Current price is: £440.00. IN BOND

Stephen Tanzer

Good deep ruby-red. High-pitched aromas of raspberry, cherry liqueur, flowers and cedary cigar box. A sweet, dense midweight with penetrating red cherry and floral flavors accented by sound acidity. Nothing thick or heavy about this wine but it possesses plenty of chewy depth. Boasts excellent early balance but has the firm, sweet tannins and finishing bite and length for at least a couple decades of positive evolution in bottle.

Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Malescot St. Exupery wafts gracefully out of the glass with scents of potpourri, raspberry coulis and kirsch over a cassis and warm plums core with a touch of pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is packed with juicy red and black fruits, sporting a firm, fine-grained texture and oodles of freshness. It has a good, long and remarkably pure finish.

Tasted blind. Deep smudgy garnet. Lifted Cabernet cassis and a touch cedary. Youthful first impression. Really spicy on the palate. Generous in fruit and nicely balanced whole. Tannins smooth and just right for the fruit. (JH)
