La Closerie de Malescasse Vintage 2007
AOC Haut Médoc - Red wine 


Estate's Story
The vineyard surrounding the château is situated on one of the best gravelly hilltops to be found between Margaux and St Julien Beychevelle. This exceptional quality growing area, with deep and well drained soil, enjoys favorable conditions to make a delicate wine: climate tempered by the proximity of the river, a noble "terroir", proven technical input and, most important, the respect and “savoir-faire” of the specialists. Since 1824, Château Malescasse is aware of the necessity to create complicity between Man and Nature to make a fine wine.
