2004 Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry Margaux Grand Cru Classé

VIVINO rating of 4.2 based on over 20,000 reviews.

Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry is a quintessential Margaux appellation wine; distinguished, dense and silky, with excellent ageing potential.  Their vines draw their nutrients from gravelly soils that absorb daytime heat and gently release it to the vine stocks at night. The nearby ocean provides a refreshing influence, helping to preserve the freshness of the berries, which are vinified with minimal intervention. Maturation lasts between 12 and 14 months in barriques, with up to 70% new oak.

Renowned for its exceptional elegance and often described as feminine, this wine boasts an impressive ageing potential of over thirty years. A powerful and yet harmonious wine.
