Château Malartic Lagravière
On the gravel‑and‑sand soils of Pessac‑Léognan, where vineyards meet the edge of the pine forest, Château Malartic‑Lagravière has shaped its identity since the 18th century. Grand Cru Classé de Graves, it is among the rare estates classified in 1953 for both red and white wines—a quiet testimony to the breadth of its terroir.
Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot draw structure from free‑draining gravels and iron‑tinged subsoils, while Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon thrive in cooler pockets that preserve freshness. Since the Bonnie family’s arrival in 1997, vineyard and cellar have been renewed with a clear aim: precision without losing place.
Plot work, gentle extraction and finely judged élevage—barrel where needed, sur lie when it serves texture—deliver a style that reads Pessac‑Léognan as landscape and craftsmanship in the same breath, built for steady evolution.Château Malartic Lagravière
