This second wine of Malartic-Lagraviere is drinking just beautifully. Open nose has loads of red fruit, underbrush, savory, gravelly notes, and even a lightly-roasted beef note. Soft and mouthfilling, but light on its feet. Fruit, earthy notes, and savory, low-toned minerals on the palate. Not much tannin in the slightly drying finish. I wouldn’t keep these more than a couple more years.

Second wine from this producer...was very impressed with their first wine. This is surprisingly good (second wine!!!) with dark berries, liquorice and a bit of leather. Went insanly good with fresh Tapenade from the market 😋
