50.4 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 47.8 % Merlot, 1.8 % Cabernet Franc, 26 hl/ha, Alkohol 14.2 vol%. Tiefes Purpur mit opaker Mitte und lila Reflexen. Satte Cassiswürze in der komplexen Nase, dahinter Szechuanpfeffer, Lakritze und Fliedernoten. Am konzentrierten Gaumen mit cremiger Textur, engmaschigem Tanningerüst, fein körnigem Extrakt, gut stützender Rasse und muskulösem Körper. Im gebündelten Finale schwarzbeerige Konturen, dunkles Edelholz und zarte blättrige Noten im Untergrund, daher reicht es für die bessere Note (noch) nicht! Die positive Handschrift von Eric Boissenot ist hier zweifelsfrei erkennbar!

Lots of blackberry, cherry and walnut aromas and flavors. Some tar, too. It’s full-bodied with chewy tannins that are polished and energetic. It turns linear and long at the end. Juicy too.

The 2020 Malartic Lagravière, whose picking was completed on September 24, before the rains, has a bright, vivid nose of mineral-infused red fruit mixed with hints of blueberry and cassis. Very focused and precise, this is an aromatically sophisticated Pessac-Léognan. The palate is medium-bodied with graphite-tinged black fruit, hints of wild mint coming through, and lively and tensile toward the finish. This is one of the best vintages of Malartic Lagravière that I have encountered out of bottle. Ignore at your peril.
