Chateau Malescot St. Exupery 1996

This impressively constructed wine offers a saturated deep ruby/purple colour, followed by elegant aromas of berry fruit intermixed with tobacco, flowers, and vanillin scents. It is layered and medium to full-bodied, with outstanding purity and fruit extraction. Although deep, rich, and powerful for a wine from this estate, it has not lost any of its elegance or potential complexity.
