James Suckling (2023) 96 - 97 / 100

Attractive dark-berry character with blackberries, blackcurrants, walnuts and dark spices. It’s full-bodied, concentrated and dense with a compact and very fine tannin structure that builds up. It’s deep and balanced with violets and pure blue-fruit undertones. Lingering and very polished finish. Structured and firm.

Yves Beck (2023) 96 - 97 / 100

Malescot se révèle avec une exceptionnelle subtilité. Le bouquet est complexe et crée le lien entre moult éléments, que ce soient des notes de poivre de Sichuan, d’eucalyptus, de tabac blond ou de fleurs ! Et bien d’autres… L’attaque est invitante de par sa sucrosité. Le vin dispose de tannins juteux et suaves et d’une acidité structurante qui confère de la fraîcheur jusqu’en finale. La fine amertume qui apparaît sur la finale ne fait que plussoyer l’expression aromatique et étirer la persistance. Un vin prometteur qui joue sur plusieurs tableaux en associant, la délicatesse, le tempérament, la puissance et le charme. 2028-2052

RVF (2023) 94 - 96 / 100

La matière est admirable de soyeux et d’énergie, avec un équilibre remarquable. Le vin est finement enrobé par un élevage qui se fait discret. L’ensemble se fond bien et persiste surtout très longuement.

Parker (2023) 93 - 95 / 100

Offering up aromas of rich blackberries, cassis, sweet spices, pencil shavings and creamy new oak, the 2022 Malescot St. Exupery is medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with a broad attack that segues into a layered core of expressive fruit that's framed by sweet, powdery tannins.

Bettane & Desseauve (2023) 94 / 100

Corsé et harmonieux, parfaite maturité des raisins, très beau vin. On recommande.

Decanter (2023) 94 / 100

Intensely perfumed and fragrant on the nose, supple and succulent, really quite juicy and highly acidic with both a dark blackcurrant and red cherry juiciness, tannins are nicely present, filling but with a great texture and this has a nice overall brightness and vibrancy that some don't have. I really like this, feels elegant and nicely detailed, soft, really not trying too hard. Will be for easier drinking than some but nice.

Jeff Leve (2023) 94 / 100

Black, blue and red fruits, tobacco leaf, flowers, and coffee bean, with a hint of cocoa create the nose. Lively red and black fruits, with hints of chocolate show in the round, full-bodied, deep wine. The lengthy finish is all about its layers of sweet, ripe, dark red berries, energy and chocolately, espresso in the mid-palate and end notes. Drink from 2027-2050.

Vinous (N. Martin) (2023) 92 - 95 / 100

It has a fragrant bouquet with red cherries, raspberry coulis, blueberry and violet scents. The palate has a well-defined entry with sour cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant and touches of marmalade. Not powerful, but harmonious with a silky texture, this is a precision-tooled Margaux that will give 20 to 30 years of drinking pleasure.

Vinous (A. Galloni) (2023) 92 - 94 / 100

The 2022 Malescot Saint Exupéry is dense, powerful and voluptuous. Black cherry, mocha, espresso, licorice and chocolate are all amplified. In 2022, Malescot is quite the extrovert. These days Malescot is not as classic as it used to be, but this is a good showing, even if the alcohol comes through a touch.
