Chateau Malescot St-Exupery Margaux AOC 2019

Description

Red Wine –  ‘Cabernet Sauvignon’ 50%,  ‘Merlot’ 35%,  ‘Cabernet Franc’ 10%,  ‘Petit Verdot’ 5%

An expressive and refined red Bordeaux from the prestigious Margaux AOC Third Growth estate, whose history dates back to the 17th century. This wine perfectly embodies Margaux’s elegance, structure, and the unique character of its terroir.

On the nose, it reveals notes of blackcurrant, cherry, plum, and blackberry, complemented by hints of cedar, sweet spices, cocoa, and tobacco leaf. A delicate floral lift and a subtle smoky undertone add depth and refinement.

On the palate, it is concentrated and beautifully balanced, with a harmony of velvety tannins and fresh acidity. The ripeness of dark fruits blends with spice, minerality, and a touch of vanilla, leading into a long, elegant, and rich finish.

The grapes are hand-harvested from vines over 35 years old, rooted in gravel and clay-limestone soils. Fermentation takes place in cement and stainless-steel vats under temperature control, followed by 14–16 months of maturation in French oak barrels (80–100% new, depending on the vintage).

 

Serving recommendations

Serve at 16–18 °C, pairs beautifully with roast lamb loin with rosemary and garlic, duck breast with cherry–red wine sauce, or aged hard cheeses such as Comté or Manchego.
