Chateau Malescot St Exupery 2021
Chateau Malescot St Exupery is a distinguished Third Growth estate located in the France, specifically within the prestigious Margaux appellation of Bordeaux. The estate can trace its history back to the 18th century, but it was the purchase by the Zuger family in 1955 that sparked a dramatic restoration of its reputation.
Wine Description
The Chateau Malescot St Exupery presents a deep garnet-purple colour and a complex sensory profile. The bouquet is highly aromatic and floral, bursting with scents of black currant, black cherry, and crushed violets, complemented by hints of lavender, mint, and creamy new oak. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a fleshy, flamboyant style, showcasing vibrant layers of dark berries, red currants, and plums alongside notes of espresso and spice. Its structure is defined by firm yet silky tannins and a lively core of acidity, leading to a long, polished finish with a touch of savory herbs.
