Something about CHATEAU MALESCOT ST EXUPERY

The history of Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry goes back to 1697, when the property was born under the reign of the Escoussés family. The estate will subsequently be sold to Maître Simon Malescot, advisor to King Louis XIV. He enriched the property for more than a century before giving in turn to Jean-Baptiste Saint-Exupéry, great-grandfather of the writer and aviator Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. He decided to enrich the name of the Château with his name to become Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry. The property will subsequently be acquired by Messrs. Fourcade and Boissac who will make the Malescot wine worthy of its rank. They begin renovations in the cellars of exploitation which will become in 1870 a model for the other castles Médocains. When it was bought in June 1955, the estate has only 7 hectares of vines. It is 3 generations of the Zuger family who succeed then to relaunch the castle and restore its reputation. Half a century later, still in the Zuger family, Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry has found its superb.

FROM THE
EXPERTS

The 2015 Malescot St. Exupery, which showed so impressively in barrel, has developed a gorgeous bouquet with sea spray-infused black fruit, well defined with hints of shucked oyster shell. The palate is fresh on the entry with a fine line of acidity, a Margaux that is tensile from start to finish without compromising fruit concentration. There is a lot of personality in this Malescot, real terroir expression on the finish and it has a very promising future. Anticipated maturity: 2022 - 2045.

Some very rich and ripe red and dark berries here make for an impressive, engaging nose that has charming violet undertones. The palate is velvety and supple, while super smooth tannins deliver a long and plush, plum-soaked finish. Great wine and already drinking well. Try from 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. 2021 - 2039
