Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry 2000 Double-Magnum

850.00 

In the world of wine, family legacies are often filled with challenges and rich histories. Such is the case at Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry, where the latest generation, represented by Léa, daughter of Jean-Luc Zuger, continues the winemaking tradition while bringing her own touch. Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry covers 28 hectares in Margaux.

“Fruit, balance, and freshness are our guides,” Léa confides. This guiding principle, already present under her father’s leadership, continues to shape each vintage.

THE WINE

Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

95

“This estate, which has continued to impress me in recent years, hit a home run in 2000.
Showing slightly better than I rated it previously, this wine is deep bluish/purple with some lightening at the edge, and its floral nose displays notes of melted licorice, crushed rock, blueberries and black raspberries. A wine of extraordinary balance, equilibrium, and purity, with supple tannins, this medium to full-bodied, concentrated effort is already compelling and has hit its window of full maturity, where it should stay for another 15-20 years.”
