1983 Chateau Malescot St. Exupery 3eme Cru Classe, Margaux 1x75cl

Robert Parker 83

The 1983 Malescot has a moderately dark ruby color, a ripe berryish bouquet, hard, very astringent tannins, medium body, and a severe, compact finish. The wine is tough textured and difficult to penetrate, as well as alcoholic. The question remains, will the fruit outlast the tannins? Anticipated maturity: Now-2003. Last tasted, 3/89.
