2003 Château Malescot St. Exupéry

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

95 Points

Friday, September 22, 2023 - The wine is still singing and there is no decline in the eye sight, yet I see no reason to store it any further.
This is one gorgeous ripe yet restrained Bdx fully developed yet demonstrating a perfect balance between tertiary notes of leather and cigar box on one hand and perfectly ripe (but not overripe) black and red fruits on the other. Ink, road dust, wet slate and pencil lead provide an extra support just in case you are not convinced.
Initially I gave it a 94, but in the end added an extra point for the length of finish and the classyness of the flavour profile.
