The Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry was already producing wine in the early 17th century. It was first named Château Malescot when Maître Simon Malescot, King's Councillor to the Parliament of Bordeaux, acquired it in 1697.
Then in 1827, it was the Compte de Saint-Exupéry's turn to own the property and add his name to it. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, famous French aviator and writer, was one of his descendants.
The Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry was named Troisième Grand Cru Classé in the famous 1855 classification, and passed into the hands of the Zuger family a century later.
The 28-hectare vineyard is planted on fine clay-limestone and gravel terroirs, and is made up of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. A Second wine is produced, La Dame de Malescot.
Having long since regained its letters of nobility, the Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry offers harmonious, fruity and expressive wines, illustrating the beauty of the Margaux terroir.
The 2025 vintage of Malescot Saint-Exupéry follows in the footsteps of the estate’s great vintages, combining technical precision with a generous expression of fruit. Harvested by hand and subjected to particularly rigorous sorting, the wine is vinified by plot in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing for controlled extraction that respects the raw material. This approach, combined with minimal intervention, aims to preserve the wine’s aromatic purity and natural balance. Aging in French oak barrels refines the structure and imparts an elegant patina without masking the vintage’s identity.
On the palate, the wine reveals beautiful aromatic intensity dominated by expressive, ripe, and particularly seductive fruit. Notes of black fruit mingle with a subtle roasted touch. The attack is full-bodied and powerful, supported by lovely density. The wine is substantial and structured, yet retains a certain suppleness that makes it approachable. The fruit, very present, expresses itself with richness and freshness, bringing balance and depth to the tasting. The finish prolongs this impression of controlled richness, with lovely persistence and a structure that hints at good aging potential.
A 2025 Malescot that is both powerful and harmonious, driven by vibrant fruit and precise winemaking, faithful to the elegant and expressive style of Margaux.
