Chateau Malartic Lagraviere Rouge Cru Classe Pessac-Leognan

Bordeaux

Pessac-Léognan

Deep plum colour, plush damson and black cherry, with a well textured grain to the tannins that stops things being overly sweet. This is a brilliant Malartic-Lagravière, just absoutely hits the spot between excess and restaint, so much detail and concentration to the fruit, and it manages to pull up just short of too much, delivering a cooler blueberry and mint leaf exit that draws things out through the palate and opens things up for a smoky woodfire soot edge. Total class.

Inside Bordeaux

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2022 Malartic Lagraviere Rouge charges out with profound notes of creme de cassis, chocolate-covered cherries, and plum preserves, followed by suggestions of garrigue and unsmoked cigars. The full-bodied palate is taut with dense, muscular black fruits, supported by firm, rounded tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with great length.

A château that has been riding a wave of success in recent years, producing excellent consistency, and here they deliver a concentrated shot of pureed damson fruit, a lovely addition in a vintage where things tend to be on the slim side. Juicy, textured, freshly cut herbs and gunsmoke layered through black fruits. Doesn't entirely escape the challenges of the year and is a little short on the finish but one of the successes of the year. Bonnie family owners here.

Excellent vintage at Malartic, rich plum colour, cocoa bean, black chocolate, anis and fennel, this is skilfully constructed. Peony and iris notes arrive through the mid palate, giving a focus on savoury Cabernet, cassis bud, mint leaf, elegant and well measured. You can see the building blocks and feel totally confident about how well it will develop over the next decade and beyond - suggest waiting at least six to eight years before opening. Great stuff from the Bonnie family, who continue to make this an unmissable Pessac. 38.95hl/ha yield.

Plentiful tanins carefully holding the fruit in place, showing layers of aniseed, feenel, rosemarary and sage. Plenty of black fruits, it is young and subdued with some angular tannins at this point, less voluptuous than in recent vintages but this is an estate that takes an quality approach to everything, and this should age well. One point upscore, tasted twice. 42.25hl/h yield, Eric Boissenot consultant. Harvest September 29 to October 19. 65% new oak.

Expert

Deep ruby in colour. Only slightly watery at the rim. Wonderfully clean nose. Intense but not overwhelming. Primary aroma characteristics. Smells of red cherries, strawberries, raspberry notes, blueberries, toast, slight vanilla and violets. So youthful and ever so refreshing. Secondary taste characteristics. Wow! The wine tastes of strawberries, black cherries, delicate plums, toast, cloves, dark chocolate finish with a spicy undertone.

The wine is dry, the tannin structure; wonderful. The tannins are so well integrated, however high you can’t not sense the velvety and beautiful oak use in this wine. High acidity, again seemingly integrated and harmonious. The alcohol is medium to medium(+). The wine is rich at the moment with a medium(+) body and packs an intense flavour intensity. It’s balanced, nuanced, detailed. Good complexity even now, this has all the stuffing needed. Long finish.

Ripe and floral nose with lifted aromas, cassis, raspberry, violet, tobacco with nuanced oak. Very dense core, plentiful fruit with crushed red berries, dark plum, an aromatic herbal spiciness, fine oak, tobacco and a long powerful finish.

Deep garnet-brick in color, the 2014 Malartic Lagraviere Rouge features tiring notes of dried figs and prunes with underlying hints of leather, stewed tea, and spice box. The medium-bodied palate delivers quite a lot of mature fruit with firm, chewy tannins and well-knit freshness, finishing spicy.

The 2013 Malartic Lagraviere has a medium garnet color, with a touch of brick. It gives up notes of raspberry leaves, crushed stones, tapenade, and tobacco, with touches of dried Provence herbs and spice box. Medium-bodied, the palate has a lively backbone and delicate fruit, which is slightly over-run by chewy tannins, finishing firm.

Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2012 Malartic Lagraviere Rouge features expressive scents of baked plums and stewed cherries with hints of dried herbs, unsmoked cigars, and mossy tree bark. The medium-bodied palate delivers plenty of juicy black fruits with a soft texture and earthy finish.

Malartic delivers in both 2009 and 2010, and this is just totally class Pessac - charcoal, black tea, cinnamon, intense cassis puree, bilberry, cocoa bean, muscular tannins that are still fully in control.

Great poise and character, these were the years when Malartic was taking a step up, and the 2009 has more than stood the test of time. Supple tannins that have a hidden kick, with a punch of dark fruits layered behind. Great stuff, enjoyable, fresh but confident signoff of concentrated blackcurrant puree and cigar box.

Fortsatt ung, kan godt ligge 6-7 år til.

Deep garnet in colour, with opening aromatics of tobacco, coffee grounds, cocoa bean, damson and plum. With intensity and concentration, definitely feels that this has more years to go before reaching its peak. Supple silky texture, enjoyable, powerful. Harvest September 15 to October 12. Two years after the arrival of Jean-Jacques and Severine Bonnie to the family estate, purchased by the Bonnie family in 1997.
