Château Malescot St. Exupéry, Third Growth wine estate in Margaux, France
Château Malescot St. Exupéry is a wine estate in Margaux with vineyards planted in Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The property contains cellars where grapes are processed and wines age before being bottled and released.
The estate gained its classification as one of fourteen Third Growths in the 1855 Bordeaux Wine Official Classification. This designation has shaped its standing in wine history for over a century and a half.
The estate follows Margaux traditions where carefully chosen grapes become balanced wines through thoughtful blending. You can see how this approach shapes daily work in the vineyards and defines what the region stands for.
Visitors can take guided tours through the vineyards and cellars, followed by wine tastings. It is best to book in advance and wear comfortable shoes since much of the experience involves walking through the grounds.
The estate uses special soil management methods to benefit from the limestone-rich ground. This approach helps develop the floral notes that make wines from this area recognizable.
