“Lovely steeped plum, fig and blackberry fruit is melded thoroughly with notes of alder, lilac and warm tar, giving this both treble and bass, while velvety tannins carry the finish with ease. Offers a long sanguine detail through the finish.”

“Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Malescot St. Exupery is scented of chocolate–covered cherries, cassis and red plums with touches of earth and bay leaves. Medium to full-bodied with ripe, grainy tannins and plenty of expressive fruit, it finishes long and pure.”

–94+ Points,Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“This is a lightweight wine that’s fresh and fruity, with an attractive suggestion of tannic structure and ample acidity. The wine will develop quickly.”

–92 Points,Wine Enthusiast

“The 2015 Malescot St. Exupery has a ripe, perfumed bouquet of ample red fruit laced with allspice, cedar and warm gravel. The medium-bodied palate displays slightly chewy tannin and feels quite primal, requiring more bottle age to knit together. There is density and even brawn here, but counterbalancing grace and elegance are needed to complete the package.”
