Tasted blind at the 10-Year On Tasting in Sauternes. The 2005 Château de Malle has a pleasing, harmonious, botrytis-rich bouquet with fine delineation: honeysuckle, minerals and orange-blossom gently floating from the glass. The palate is very well balanced with tensile citrus fruit that marries beautifully with the clear honey, mandarin and citrus notes. There is a compelling build to this wine in the mouth. A top de Malle to savor now and over the next 15-20 years. Drinking range: 2015 - 2035 Rating: 92 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Oct 2017)

Château de Malle

Château de Malle is almost as famous for its gardens as its wine. Inspired by Florence and Versailles, Alexandre Eutrope de Lur Saluces had them laid out in the early 18th Century. The history of the estate goes back to Jacques de Malle who built the château in early 17th century, and it has remained in the same family ever since. Eventually the château came into the hands of Pierre de Bournazel who injected some much needed love and attention to the somewhat neglected estate.
