2013 Ch. Malescot St Exupery

Grape : 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc , 3% Petit Verdot

Rating : RP 91 , JS 91

Tasting Note : A blend 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot, the Malescot St. Exupery has a perfumed bouquet with ripe floral cranberry and redcurrant fruit that is nicely defined, the Cabernet lending a pleasant cedar-infused aroma. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, well judged acidity and a light but focused finish that is at least fresh and precise. This is a well-crafted Margaux for the vintage and should drink well over the next 6-8 years. - Wine Advocate
