The 2010 Château Malartic Lagravière Cru Classé from Pessac-Léognan is a blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Petit Verdot. With rich flavors of plums, damsons, boysenberries, tobacco, and spice, it offers smooth, silky textures and a long, elegant finish. Critics praise its depth, purity, and balance, noting a modern, expressive style with a remarkable 50-second finish. Despite its impressive structure, it is accessible now and will age beautifully over the next 25-30 years. A true gem from this top-rated estate.

Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Malartic Lagraviere has a nose of prunes, dried figs and leather with nuances of cherry cough syrup, sassafras and camphor. Full-bodied, the mid-palate is a little dried out while the tannins are pretty darn chewy, finishing a tad hard.
Anticipated maturity: 2020-2026
Tasted blind. Deep garnet. Rich, savoury and charry on the nose. Smoky (reductive or oaky?). Massive power and not typically Pessac but impressive in balanced power. Really dense and chewy. (JH)
Anticipated maturity: 2022-2035
