Chateau Malescot St Exupery 2017

This is a 28 hectare Margaux property that has beefed up its wines in recent years. Michel Rolland consults here. Sometimes this is not very Margaux-like, but always impressive. The vineyard is planted with 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot.
