Malartic Lagraviere Rouge Grand Cru Classé Graves, 2022

Château Malartic-Lagravière Rouge Grand Cru Classé Graves 2022 is a polished Bordeaux red that combines the structure of Graves with the refinement expected from a classified growth. Made by one of the most respected estates in Pessac-Léognan, it offers a modern, expressive style while staying true to the estate’s long-standing reputation for elegance and balance.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine typically shows a deep ruby color with youthful purple reflections. The nose is layered and inviting, with dark cherry, cassis, plum, and blackberry complemented by cedar, graphite, tobacco, and subtle spice. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine-grained tannins, fresh acidity, and a silky texture that gives the wine both energy and poise. Expect ripe black fruit, savory earthy tones, and a lingering finish with hints of oak spice and minerality. While enjoyable in its youth with proper aeration, it should also reward several years of cellaring as it gains complexity and softness.

Production
Malartic-Lagravière sits in the gravelly soils of Graves, where excellent drainage and a tempering Atlantic influence help produce wines with freshness, precision, and depth. The estate’s vineyard holdings are carefully managed to express the character of each parcel, and the fruit is typically harvested by hand at optimal ripeness. Vinification is carried out with attention to detail, combining traditional Bordeaux methods with modern temperature control and élevage in oak to build structure, aroma, and aging potential.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast lamb, grilled beef, duck breast, venison, and mushroom-based dishes, as well as hard cheeses such as Comté or aged cheddar. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the aromas and tannins to open fully.
