Tasting Notes

vinum 89

Perfumed and fresh. Lots of immediacy and appeal on the nose. This appeal is over taken by marked and drying tannin on the palate. Top heavy. [Matthew Hemming, 01/01/2024]

Antonio Galloni 95

The 2020 Malescot Saint Exupery is absolutely gorgeous. Deep and silky (that is not a typo) Malescot shows a level of finesse that is truly remarkable. There is still plenty of textural intensity, but also greater elegance than in the recent past. Succulent dark cherry, plum, licorice, incense and blood orange all run through this wonderfully sumptuous, expressive Margaux. Give this a few years in bottle. Superb. [Antonio Galloni, 23/02/2023]

Anticipated maturity: 2028-2060

Neal Martin 95

The 2020 Malescot St. Exupery was picked at 31hl/ha. It has a bouquet that I would describe as controlled opulence: lavish blueberry, Dorset plums, crushed violet and incense burst from the glass… but in orderly fashion. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe and succulent tannins that lend this Margaux a fleshy texture, yet there is clearly ample structure, as well as marvelous salinity and precision on the finish. This 2020 continues the purple patch for this property and comes highly recommended. [Neal Martin, 26/05/2021]

Cask sample. Opulent black fruit on the nose and palate, very finely polished in purity, and the structure is similarly smooth. Lovely black-cherry note as well as liquorice and soy to give savoury context. (RH) [30/04/2021]

Anticipated maturity: 2025-2040

Wine Advocate 96

Sporting a deep purple-black color, the 2020 Malescot St. Exupery prances out of the glass with showy scents of ripe black and red currants, black cherries, raspberry leaves and ground cloves, plus wafts of lilacs and tilled soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers mouth-coating black and red fruit layers with a firm, grainy texture and well-balanced acidity, finishing on a lingering fragrant-earth note. [Lisa Perrotti-Brown, 27/04/2021]

Anticipated maturity: 2026-2050
