| Over het wijnhuis | Château Malescot St. Exupery is een 3e Grand Cru Classé in Margaux met een geschiedenis die teruggaat tot de 18e eeuw. Het was ooit één van de meest geurende, exotische rode wijnen van Bordeaux en een schoolvoorbeeld van geparfumeerde Margaux. In de 1980 raakte het château in verval met bleke, nietszeggende wijnen. Een jaar of vijftien later keert het terug naar zijn oude glorie met een indrukwekkende én prachtig geparfumeerde wijn in 1996. |

| Awards | "Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Malescot St. Exupery sings of cassis, fragrant earth, tobacco and lilacs with a compelling waft of mocha. Medium to full-bodied and strutting loads of expressive fruit layers at this youthful stage, it's framed by ripe, grainy tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing with great length and depth." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "A stunning red with currants, blackberries, roses and violets. Medium to full body, ultra-fine tannins and polish and finesse to the powerful tannins. A real stunner. Better than 2015. Take a serious look at it, beginning 2024." - James Suckling "Tasted blind. Interesting, layered nose. Opulent and sweet. A bit like candied leather: sweet and tannic. Rather awkward tannins." - Jancis Robinson "The 2016 Malescot Saint Exupéry has a well-defined bouquet of ample red currant, cranberry and strawberry fruit laced with rose petal and hints of graphite. There is something almost Saint Julien–like about the aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, graphite-infused black fruit, and quite linear and poised, but it conveys a genuine sense of energy and tension toward the classic finish. A magnificent Margaux." - Vinous "This opens slowly, showing a slight woodsy bent, with alder and mesquite notes leading off, but as it does the core of red currant, blackberry and plum fruit flavor fleshes out nicely, soaking up the woodsy element while adding in light savory detail and black tea and violet notes. A long mineral echo chimes through the finish. Best from 2022 through 2036. 9,975 cases made." - Wine Spectator |
