2010 Chateau Malescot St. Exupery 2010 Bordeaux Wine review, tasting notes and ratings.

2010 Malescot St. Exupery Blending 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot with the remainder evenly split between Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, this Margaux wine reached 14% alcohol.  This is not a taste by the numbers wine. There is no sensation of heat in this beauty.  Aromas of tobacco, cigar ash, stone, blackberry and floral scents pop from the glass with little effort.  Mouth coating layers of concentrated, dense, ripe, sweet dark berries, powerful tannins and freshness.  Rich, thick and flavorful, with a boatload of tannin, this Bordeaux wine will require over a decade of time in the cellar.  Pairing high quality, style and price, this merits serious attention.  95-97 Pts
