{"product_id":"margaux-aop-3eme-cru-classe","title":"Margaux AOP, 3ème Cru Classé","description":"\u003cp\u003eA classic Margaux with the typical combination of structure and elegance of this appellation — velvety tannins that still have backbone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eChâteau Malescot Saint-Exupéry\u003c\/strong\u003e has been owned by the Zuger family since 1955 and is one of the most trusted names in the Médoc. The estate lies in the heart of the Margaux appellation, on gravelly soils that retain heat and provide the vines with natural stress—a crucial factor for concentrated, age-worthy wines. As a \u003cstrong\u003e3ème Cru Classé\u003c\/strong\u003e from the renowned 1855 classification, Malescot represents a commitment to artisanal craftsmanship passed down through generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the glass, the 2021 vintage shines a deep ruby ​​red. The nose offers aromas of cassis, ripe black cherry, and a hint of cedar, followed by subtle vanilla from the oak barrel aging. On the palate, a fine tannin structure emerges, which, in 2021—a cool, precise vintage in the Médoc—appears particularly linear. The finish is long, with a touch of graphite and dark cocoa.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Drinking window: 2027–2038, best enjoyed with a little aeration in a decanter. \u003cstrong\u003eServing temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17–18 °C. Pairs well with herb-crusted rack of lamb, aged Mimolette, or a classic beef bourguignon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry","offers":[{"title":"2021","offer_id":52985103450448,"sku":"VJ0416-2021","price":75.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/61145721_2501_ohneJg.png?v=1778244199","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/margaux-aop-3eme-cru-classe","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
