James Suckling - 96 points
Sweet currant and berry aromas with hints of blackcurrants, black cherries and flowers. It’s full-bodied and layered with beautifully polished tannins that last for minutes. Tight and very focused. (2/2022)
Vinous - 96 points
The 2019 Malescot Saint Exupéry has a well-defined bouquet, although it does not quite possess the intensity that it showed from barrel. Touches of licorice and allspice gently unfold with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, and lightly spiced with white pepper and clove toward the detailed, persistent finish. This is a serious Margaux that deserves time in bottle.

Decanter - 94 points
Bramble fruit and hedgerow on the nose, this is lovely, succulent and juicy full of blue fruits - blueberries and freshly crushed mint leaves. I love the interplay between herbal and fruit aspects with gentle tannins that support but really the emphasis here is on the mint-tinged fruit from start to finish. Tannins are abundant not doubt so best to wait a few years to open but this has excellent freshness that is so appealing. (1/2022)
