My order was processed quickly and accurately. I love the in‑state free shipping when I buy 12 bottles. Most of all, B‑21’s selection of European wines is huge and expertly curated, and their prices are often the very best in the U.S.

2018 Malescot St. Exupery (750ml)

Cabernet Sauvignon from Margaux, Bordeaux, France

B-21 Top Recommendation
Read More

From a vintage producing “some of the best wines Bordeaux has ever produced” according to Inside Bordeaux’s Jane Anson, the elegant 95 pt. 2010 Chateau Malescot St. Exupery offers fresh aromatic fruit hinting of earthy spice and graphite with lush, ripe tannins, a richly structured Left Bank blend just at the beginning of its decades long drinking window delivered in perfect provenance from Malescot’s cellars and an exceptional value for Margaux lovers and collectors.

Situated in the heart of the village of Margaux on the D2, the magnificently detailed 18th century Chateau Malescot St. Exupery rests on a gravelly hilltop above the Gironde, surrounded by manicured grounds adjoining the vineyards of Chateau Margaux and owned by the Zuger family for over a half century. Under the direction of third generation Jean Luc Zuger since 1994 with advice from famed consultant Michel Rolland, the estate’s gently sloping vineyards span 23.5 hectares planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon with about a third Merlot and small parcels of Cab Franc and Petit Verdot on deep gravel, chalk and clay soils mixed with iron. After vinifying the parcels separately in a mix of stainless steel and concrete tanks of varied sizes, the beautifully balanced 2010 Malescot St. Exupery was aged in 60% new French oak barriques for 16 months before being bottled unfiltered, yielding fresh, layered fruit with velvety tannins and a long, juicy finish, “standing out as one of the more dramatic, demonstrative wines in the appellation” according to the Wine Advocate’s William Kelley and now ready to enjoy with over 10 years of bottle aging in pristine conditions at the Chateau.

Producing a Grand Vin of exceptional quality for over two decades but remaining a terrific value, the impressive 95 pt. 2010 Chateau Malescot St. Exupery is a real treat for Bordeaux fans to enjoy immediately and savor for decades to come, a beautifully crafted and impeccably aged Margaux from an outstanding vintage delivered in pristine conditions in original wooden cases of six.

A seductive Margaux with an intense nose of black fruit and red plums. Some herb and wood notes, too. It’s full-bodied with pretty, pure-berry flavors with some crushed stones and cement. The texture is silky and fine-grained and the tannins melt into the wine. Precise, flavorful finish with length. Try after 2024.

The medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Malescot St. Exupery leaps from the glass with expressive scents of baked blackberries, Morello cherries and boysenberries with hints of blackcurrant cordial, dark chocolate, licorice and tilled soil. The medium to full-bodied palate has impressive intensity without heaviness, delivering mouth-coating black fruits and a firm, grainy texture, finishing with a refreshing earthy lift.

I loved the 2018 Château Malescot Saint Exupéry from barrel two years ago, and it certainly doesn't disappoint from bottle today. Based on 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, this deeply hued beauty boasts smoking good notes of blackcurrants, smoked tobacco, chocolate, and spice. Full-bodied and impressively concentrated, it has a stacked mid-palate, ripe, sweet yet certainly present tannins, a terrific sense of freshness, and a great finish. It's going to fun comparing this and the 2016 over the coming two decades! While there's some up-front accessibility and charm here, it really needs 4-6 years of bottle age and is going to have 20-25 years of overall longevity. This is gem of a wine that's well worth seeking out.

95 points, Jeb Dunnuck (Mar 2021)

The 2018 Malescot Saint Exupéry is every bit as compelling as it was from barrel. Powerful and incisive, the 2018 is a driving, potent Margaux that dazzles from the first taste. Iron, smoke, new leather, licorice, pressed rose petal and cedar all open in the glass, conveying tremendous nuance and a ton of character.

95 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous (Mar 2021)

Lovely, with gently mulled plum, blackberry and black currant fruit sailing through atop a velvety structure while mouthwatering bay, black tea and iron notes flow underneath. Seductive, detailed finish lets a sanguine note echo longest. Gorgeous wine. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2023 through 2036. 9,183 cases made.
