Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry

Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry

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.

Description Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry 2010.

A beautiful year on all fronts (despite occasional uncertainties), with rainfall and the harmonious unfolding of the seasons, allowed Nature to give birth to this wine of Margaux, the third Grand Cru Classé.

La robe is deep purple with fine black jade highlights.

Nose and palate reveal a wide range of expressions of red berries: raspberry and wild strawberry coulis, crème de cassis, Ente plums and candied greengage plums.

The texture is fine and pleasing, with a splendid minty, woody, vanilla finish and a final touch of violet.

A wine for laying down for several decades, with a probable peak in 2021-2025.

Bottles should be kept lying down, away from light and noise, with a humidity level of around 70%.

Decant at least two hours in advance at room temperature to allow the wine to express its layers of aromas and flavors.

Available in imperfect

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
