Description: | Tasting Notes\r\nMedium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Malescot St. Exupery sings of cassis, fragrant earth, tobacco and lilacs with a compelling waft of mocha. Medium to full-bodied and strutting loads of expressive fruit layers at this youthful stage, it's framed by ripe, grainy tannins and oodles freshness, finishing with great length and depth.\r\nBlend 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot\r\nJames Suckling 97 Points \r\nRobert Parker 95 Points\u00a0\r\nAbout Ch\u00e2teau Malescot St. Exupery\r\nCh\u00e2teau Malescot St. Exupery owest its name to two former owners: Simon Malescot, a royal councillor to the Bordeaux parliment, who acquired the estate in 1697, and Count Jean-Baptiste de Saint-Exupery, who owned it from 1827 to 1853.\r\nPaul Zuger and his son, Rojer, purchased the chateau, located in the middle of the town of Margaux, in June 1955. After more than thirty years of unstinting efforts, Malescot St. Exupery's coat of arms has never been truer:\u00a0Semper Ad Altum\u00a0(\ |
