Wine Enthusiast, 93 Points 

"This second wine of Malartic-Lagravière is rich with smooth tannins and generous blackberry fruits. A soft texture, ripe fruitiness and fine depth and density all contribute to a wine that will age well over the medium-term. Drink from 2023.” 

James Suckling, 91-92 Points 

"Attractive second wine with blueberry and mineral character, medium body and a driven finish. Improvement." 

Wine Spectator, 90 Points 

"Gentle-edged, this red offers a mix of damson plum and cherry purée notes that glide through easily, lined with red tea and mineral hints. Graceful finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2027. 8,333 cases made." 

Alcohol: 14%
