Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry is a Third Growth wine producer situated in the Margaux appellation. Owned by the Zuger family since the 1950s, the estate includes 23 hectares under vine and the best vineyards share the same deep, grave soils as their neighbour Château Margaux. This release is from the 2009 vintage, a successful year for the château. The wine has a distinctive character and power, offering notes of mocha, cedar and liquorice. Complexity that will stand the test of time.
