Château Malartic-Lagravière Rouge 2018
Winespectator.com – James Molesworth – avril 2019
92 – 95 This has a big ball of warm plum and boysenberry compote notes at the core, framed with a liberal dose of singed cedar and apple wood. Hasn’t integrated fully yet, but there’s good length and energy here, with a positive vibe.
Robertparker.com – Lisa Perrotti-Brown – Avril 2019
92 – 94 Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Malartic Lagraviere gives scents of baked red and black cherries, warm blackcurrants and balsamic with touches of underbrush, moss-covered bark and tobacco.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Rouge 2017
James Suckling – Wine Enthousiast – April 2018
92 – 93 A firm and silky wine with a creamy freshness and firm tannins. Dark berries and wet earth. Medium to full body. Linear and tight.
Bettane et Desseauve – Avril 2018
17,5-18 Notre meilleure note de dégustation à l’aveugle cette année, dans cette appellation, confirmée une seconde fois au château. Remarquable finesse, texture d’une élégance superlative. Rétro-olfaction fraîche sur un menthol de premier grand cru. Bravo.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Rouge 2016
James Suckling – jamessuckling.com – March 2017
95 – 96 Noted in the Top 100 best wines by James Suckling. This is so linear and refined with compacted fruit and superb tannin texture. The length and beauty to this grab you immediately and make you pay attention. Wait and see.
Neal Martin – erobertParker.com – April 2017
94 – 96 It has a very composed and pure bouquet with blackberry, mint and just a touch of blueberry, the new oak neatly integrated and menthol developing with time. The palate is very well balanced with crisp acidity, fine structure and a keen line of acidity; this is a pixelated Pessac-Léognan that exudes style and panache.

Philippe Maurange – Revue du Vin de France – Septembre 2013
19/20 L’une des très grandes révélations du millésime. Splendide couleur, nez magnifique de fruit noir avec une touche de graphite amenant une bouche pleine, dense, ronde, séductrice et mûre. Magnifique vin, de grand style.

Andreas Larsson (Meilleur sommelier du monde) – November 2012
97 Pure and mineral nose, wet stones, tobacco, wild berries, blackcurrant and fine leather, the palate is rather massive and concentrated with layers of dark fruit, high level of fine tannin, a bright freshness and supreme length, great purity and potential.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Rouge 2008
Neal Martin – eRobertParker – January 2011
93 This is excellent: beautifully crafted with no rough edges. I said that it may merit a high score after bottling…and it does.
The palate is medium-bodied with very fine silky tannins, very focused and fresh with succulent ripe black fruits towards the tensile finish.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Rouge 2007
Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate – April 2010
90 This beauty, spicy, elegant, layered, and medium to full-bodied, this delicious, complex offering should be consumed over the next 12-15 years.

Jancis Robinson.com – January 2010
16.5 Quoted as one of the best bargains among all Bordeaux region’s wines. Pretty ripe and black cherry-like. Very juicy. Yet with firm structure. A cross between Graves and Pomerol. A lot of flesh !

Robert Parker – June 2015
95 Gorgeously pure blueberry and blackberry fruit along with some notes of cassis, charcoal and licorice jump from the glass of this inky purple wine. An absolutely fabulous success for Malartic Lagravière, this full-bodied wine has sweet tannin, and is complex and long. Drink it over the next 25 years. Bravo!
Guide Bettane & Desseauve 2008

Jean-Marc Quarin – Guide Quarin des Vins de Bordeaux – Septembre 2011
Très belle bouche parfumée, riche, à la finale réglissée et puissante, au fruité éclatant, aux tannins fins. C’est un must du moment (dernière note :16).
James Suckling – Wine Spectator – April 2007
92 : Top Scoring Bordeaux Value Refined and well-crafted, with delicate spice, fresh meat and berry character . Full-bodied, with well- integrated tannins.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2018Jamessuckling.com – James Suckling – March 2019

Yvesbeck.wine – Yves Beck – March 2019
92 – 93 Bouquet de bonne intensité avec une touche fumée, des agrumes et de la menthe. Attaque dense et vive en bouche. Malartic Lagravière a de la structure, de l’aromatique ainsi que de la race en fin de bouche. Finale fruitée persistante qui cumule maturité et fraîcheur.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2017jamessuckling.com – James Suckling – April 2018

94 Beautiful and harmonius.
Roger Voss – Wine Enthusiast – March 2015
95 – 97 Barrel Sample. There are strong wood flavors in this wine, but there’s also ripe fruit and ample acidity. It is an impressive wine that is balanced, rich and likely to age well.
James Suckling – jamessuckling.com
92 – 93 Beautiful intensity of sliced limes, slates, stones and citrus. This is a serious white as always. As always Château Malartic-Lagravière is top quality and serious stuff in 2014 for reds and white alike.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2013James Suckling – jamessuckling.com – April 2014
94 – 95 A fresh, multi-dimensional young white with sliced-lime, mineral, basil and lemon character. Full-bodied but bright and agile. Wonderful intensity. One of the best whites ever from here.
Roger Voss – Wine Enthusiast – April 2014
93 – 95 Barrel Sample. Warm, ripe and rich, this is a wine with weight, complexity and bright acidity. It’s a rounded wine, with some strong wood flavors and a creamy texture that carries through to the finish.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2012Neal Martin – erobertparker.com – May 2013
93-95 A startling white Bordeaux that reminds you how great it can be. This is a great white wine from the Bonnie family. Lovely mineral-like scents, cold granite and Alpine streams with crisp green fruit. The palate is vibrant on the entry with well-judged acidity, lovely ripe green apples and hints of nectarine and apricot lying in wait in the background with a long satisfying citric finish.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2011James Molesworth – Wine Spectator – June 2012
91-94 Cité dans les Top Whites.
Steven Spurrier – decanter – April 2013
17.5/20 Pure vibrancy of Sauvignon-dominated fruit with an added richness from the vintage and from perfect winemaking, a very classy wine.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2010Robert Parker – erobertparker.com – February 2013
93 Full-bodied blend. It is deep and rich, with loads of caramelized grapefruit, tropical fruit, subtle oak, wet stones and plenty of melons.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2009Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate – April 2012
95 This is serious wine boasting notes of lemon and lime marmalade intermixed with honeysuckle, a whiff of freshly cut grass and a waxy, melony character. Aromatically complex, this relatively big Malartic Lagravière should drink well for up to 20 or more years. A great wine! Drink 2012 – 2032.
Christel Guibert & James Lawther – Decanter – February 2012
17**** “Among the Top 2009 whites”
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2008Robert Parker – erobertparker.com – May 2011
92 A stunning blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Semillon, this medium-bodied wine offers up hints of citrus oil, orange zest and honeyed grapefruit. It should drink well for a decade.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2007Roger Voss – Wine Enthusiast – December 2010
Quoted among the Top 100 Cellar Selections – 94 It is easy to be seduced by the opulence of this wine. But underneath the ripe surface, there is a complex wine, full of tight, structured yellow fruits, spice from wood and acidity bursting to get out. It needs at least another four years for its real grandeur to be apparent.
Robert Parker – April 2010
96
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2006Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate – February 2009
94 An extraordinary effort, with notes of quince, mandarin orange, honeysuckle and wet rocks, this medium to full-bodied wine has fabulous purity, great depth, and a long, long finish. This is a 20-year wine.
Jancis Robinson – January 2010
17+ Only property to score highly for both its red and white. Sharp, tight Sauvignon aromas. Very tight with good zesty fruit.
Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc 2005Robert Parker – July 2008
92 Made in a beautiful, elegant, zesty style, the 2005 Malartic Lagravière offers copious quantities of honeyed grapefruit and other assorted citrus, crushed rock, spring flower, nectarine, and marmalade, as well as brilliant acidity and a bright, refreshing, mineral-dominated personality. It should evolve for 10 to 15 or more years.
Guide Gilbert & Gaillard 2008
95 Vin exceptionnel. Beaucoup de gras et de fraîcheur en bouche, un vin complet doté de qualités de fraîcheur aromatique et d’une persistance au-dessus de la moyenne. Parmi ce qui se fait de mieux dans l’appellation.
La Revue du Vin de France – Septembre 2006
Vin exceptionnel ***** Un magnifique 2003 qui confirme le style à part de ce cru. On retrouve en bouche le caractère épicé, poivre blanc, avec une attaque en tension et une acidité plus marquée que sur les autres vins de la dégustation. Belle longueur, avec de la fraîcheur. C’est équilibré superbement élevé, sans les travers de lourdeur du millésime.
Guide de la Revue du Vin de France 2007
16 Les blancs des deux derniers millésimes en bouteille, 2002 et 2003, issus de raisins encore plus mûrs, vont dans le bon sens et réconcilieront peut-être avec les grands graves, les amateurs qui s’en étaient détournés.
Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate – Juin 2004
92 De vifs arômes de cosse de petit-pois, de figue, de minéral et de fumé se dégagent de ce vin moyennement corsé, très parfumé mais d’une grande précision, au potentiel de 10 à 12 ans.
Crisp pea pod, fig, mineral, and smoky notes emerge from this delineated, medium-bodied, elegant, flavorful dry white Graves.Itshould drink well for 10-12 years
La Revue du Vin de France – Hors-Série Juillet 2003
Cité parmi les sommets absolus du millésime. Ce 2000 est riche, ample, très gras, . Il pourra vieillir avec harmonie mais on peut tout aussi l’apprécier maintenant sur des poissons de rivière ou des nages de fruits de mer.
