The 2023 Château Malescot St.-Exupéry remains charming and approachable, revealing aromas of cassis, violet, dark berries and pepper, seamlessly integrated with oak. Medium- to full-bodied, rich and dense, it is built around a sapid, enveloping core of fruit, framed by velvety tannins and concluding with a delicately fresh, licorice-inflected finish. The blend—58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot—was matured for the first time partly in foudres, complemented by 60% new oak.
There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act – the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.
France, often regarded as the heart of the wine world, boasts a rich history, diverse terroirs, and a captivating variety of grape varietals. From the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux to the picturesque landscapes of Burgundy, France offers a wine lover’s dream journey. Whether you’re new to the world of wine or a seasoned enthusiast looking […]

The Margaux appellation of France's legendary Bordeaux wine region is one of the world's most famous and highly respected viticultural areas. For centuries, Margaux has been deeply associated with extremely fine wines of the highest quality, made using traditional and time-honored techniques in order to extract the very best, most refined and elegant flavors and aromas from the Bordeaux varietal grapes which grow there. Margaux wines are almost always blended, using two or three key Bordeaux grapes, commonly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc (amongst others). The blending techniques and quantities have been passed down through the generations in the ancestral chateaus which make up the region, and quality and prestige has never been allowed to falter, making Margaux one of the undisputed jewels in France's already glittering crown.

Attractive aromas of dried roses, red currants and raspberries with a hint of lavender follow through to a medium body with fine tannins that are polished and poised. Caressing texture. A blend of 58% cabernet sauvignon, 37% merlot, and 5% petit verdot. Best after 2028.

94-95 2023 Malescot St Exupery has a pleasant cherry like nose, sweet, creamy and elegant. The wine is packed with noble cherry infested sweet fruit supported by a fine layer of tannins resulting in a sophisticated, juicy and precise wine. It should be drinkable early on and provide excellent mid term drinking.

The 2023 Malescot St. Exupéry is a powerful, brooding wine. A blast of dark cherry fruit, plum, new leather, licorice, incense, tobacco, dried herbs, iron and chocolate makes a strong opening statement. Firm tannins wrap it all together in a decidedly potent, explosive Margaux.

A touch old school in style yet certainly loaded with character, the 2023 Château Malescot Saint Exupéry is based on 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot and aged 15 months in 60% new oak. Ripe red and black fruits, new saddle leather, and savory herbs all define the nose, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with good concentration, borderline rustic tannins, solid mid-palate depth, and outstanding length. It has good overall balance and will keep for two decades in a cold cellar. Drink 2026-2046.

An elegant style, with perfumed black cherry and tea notes backed by sanguine and alder hints on the finish. Pretty and enticing now, though this shows a touch of maturity already. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2030. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 7,407 cases made.
