This well-placed Margaux estate has turned things around as evidenced by the tasting notes for the 1993-95 vintages. A dark ruby color, and an herbaceous, curranty, vanillin-scented nose are attractive, but what I find especially appealing about the 1994 Malescot-St.-Exupery is its layered, richly fruity, beautifully pure style. It is not a big wine, but it possesses good intensity, a sense of grace and balance, and the impressive ability to open and expand after 5-10 minutes of airing. This should turn out to be a stylish effort that may merit a higher score if the herbaceousness turns into a cedary component after 3-4 years of bottle age. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2016.

Lovely, sustained colour that is quite intense for its age. Multiple layers of toast and ripe fruit with lots of
intensity.
Lovely density, balance and appeal with nice body. Long, silky finish.
