Chateau Malescot St. Exupery 3eme Cru Classe

Malescot St. Exupery 2015

Malescot St. Exupery

Case Format: 12x75cl

Max score: 97.0

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.

Jancis Robinson

Tasted blind. Juicy start. A little diffuse. But easy to like. Slightly drying on the end. Just a tad dull.

Jane Anson

Relatively open on the nose even at this early stage, with lashings of freshly crushed black fruits. On the palate, the dominant flavours are cinnamon and freshly puréed raspberry and blackberry. Its not hugely intense, and should be for medium term drinking.
