Chateau Malescasse Haut-Medoc

Bordeaux

Haut-Médoc

Dense damson and black cherry fruits, smooth, deft, silky, this is excellent, almost Pessac-like in its silky confidence but with plenty of Médoc tannic frame. There has been extensive restructuring at Malescasse of over the past decade, including replanting of 15h of vines, and this is one of the best examples that I can remember tasting at this stage. Philippe Austruy owned (also of Château Peyrosolle in Provence, plus estates in Tuscany and Portugal). A yield of 23hl/ha, 33% new oak.

Inside Bordeaux

Dark fruit character, good balance, touch of lift and longevity, a little dilute through the mid palate. Philippe Austrey owner, Bertrand Chemin winemaker. 40% new oak for ageing, across a range of 500l, 300l, 225l barrels.

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2022 Malescasse rocks up with ready-to-rumble notes of baked plums, warm cassis, and kirsch, plus wafts of garrigue and red roses. The medium-bodied palate is laden with bright, evocative black fruits with fine-grained tannins and lovely freshness, finishing with impressive length.

by Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW

Enjoyable, well handled, sappy dark fruits, good qulaity overall, subdued and in the character of the vintage, but with Médoc typicty. An enjoyable early to medium term drinker.

The 2020 Malescasse is deep garnet-purple in color. It bursts with notes of wild blueberries, Morello cherries, and cassis, plus hints of dried herbs and black olives. The medium-bodied palate is filled with expressive black berries and grainy tannins, finishing with an herbal lift.

Located just outside of St Julien, you get plenty of Haut-Médoc typicity, with crushed mint, flint and pencil lead, still young but with plenty of cassis, bilberry and tobacco notes adding layers and complexity. A low 23hl/h after a dry summer so not the most typical vintage, and one that can be drunk a little earlier than usual, 33% new oak.

Fyldig mørk frukt. Solbær, plommer og tre. Bløte tanniner. All-round bra vin. Kan lagres lenger også.
