Château Malartic Lagravière Pessac Léognan blanc gcc. 2023 0,75l
Château Malartic-Lagravière is one of the few estates classified Grand Cru Classé de Graves and lies in the southern part of Pessac-Léognan on deep gravel and limestone soils. A dedicated portion of the vineyard is planted with white grapes, mainly Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon with a little Sauvignon Gris. Parcels are harvested by hand and vinified partly in stainless steel, partly in barrel, followed by extended ageing on fine lees.

On the palate it is juicy and creamy yet very precise, with lively acidity, a touch of salinity and a long, refreshing finish.

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....
