2020 Malescasse, Haut-Médoc ($29.99) "The 2020 Malescasse is a gorgeous, wonderfully expressive Haut-Médoc ... an absolute delight to taste. This is elegance personified." — Antonio Galloni, Vinous Proof positive of just how much the qualitative tide has risen in the past two decades in Bordeaux, this Cru Bourgeois standout from Malescasse boasts big press for a bargain price. Endowed with all the structure of the vintage, it still displays the estate's approachable style, making for broadly versatile performer that will shine anytime over the next decade or more.
97 points Decanter: "Alluring sweet cassis, plum and blackcurrant aromas with a mellow texture and poised tannins beautifully bonded to refined currant and cedar fruit core. The subtle use of oak sits elegantly on the lingering finish. A class act. (DWWA 2023)" 92 points Vinous: "The 2020 Malescasse is a gorgeous, wonderfully expressive Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois. Cabernet Sauvignon aromatics open first, with plenty of floral and savory accents that lift from the glass. Pliant and caressing on the palate, with mid-weight structure, the 2020 is an absolute delight to taste. This is elegance personified. (AG)" (02/2023)
Wow-what a great value here. We have always loved this property, and this is the best they have made. Nose leaps out of the glass with sweet cassis, plum, and blackcurrant aromas. Tons of rich, black-fruit flavors and fine acidity. Some tannins, but decant an hour and enjoy with prime rib. Better yet, put a case in the wine cellar and enjoy it over the next ten years. A real winner.
