2015 Chateau Malescot St. Exupery 3eme Cru Classe, Margaux 1x750ml

Vinous 92

The 2015 Malescot St. Exupery has an elegant bouquet showcasing primarily red berry fruit (wild strawberry and raspberry), pencil shavings and light forest floor scents. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, finely-tuned acidity, a little more black fruit than the nose and a granular texture. It gently builds in the glass and is harmonious, slightly Saint-Julien in style, towards the finish that displays a touch of black pepper. Very fine. [Neal Martin, 26/01/2023]

"Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Malescot St. Exupery is scented of chocolate-covered cherries, cassis and red plums with touches of earth and bay leaves. Medium to full-bodied with ripe, grainy tannins and plenty of expressive fruit, it finishes long and pure." [Lisa Perrotti-Brown, 21/02/2018]
