Lot #12. Malescot St. Exupery 2005

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 97 RP.
"This estate’s finest effort - ever, the 2005 Malescot St.-Exupery should be sought out by readers looking for intensity combined with superb richness, fascinating elegance, and a surreal concoction of blue and red fruits, a silky texture, and a delicate yet powerful wine that builds incrementally, never becoming overwrought. This dense purple-colored, medium to full-bodied tour de force in winemaking is already displaying remarkable complexity. . . .I would not be surprised to see this wine merit a few more points with additional aging." Wine Advocate #176, Apr 2008
Provenance: The Tonique Cellar
Notes: 1 lightly damp stained label, 1 nicked and very lightly damp stained label.
