  • Terroir
    La Closerie de Malescasse is Château Malescasse’s second wine, made from vines found on one of the best gravel hillsides between Margaux and Saint-Julien-de-Beychevelle in the Haut-Médoc.


    Area: 40 ha on the township of Lamarque.

  • Features
    It is a blend of the youngest or most interesting vines, designed to create a charming wine which can be drunk now but still retaining the estate’s distinctive characteristics of balance and elegant tannins. Garnet in colour, with hints of purple, it immediately seduces with a frank, expressive and agreeably complex nose. Well-ripened forest fruits are complemented by subtly toasted notes which elegantly underline a very fruity style. The palate is supple, rounded and silky, balanced by a liveliness which gives it great energy. Elegant and sound, right through to a robust, mature finish.
  • Food Pairings
    Drink with roast beef or cured meats.
