Malartic Lagraviere Blanc 2025 (750ML)

93 Points, Georgina Hindle, Decanter: "Freshly picked orchard fruit on the nose – expressive and alive with hints of dried herbs, hay and vanilla. Juicy and softly succulent, this has a nice balance between creamy white fruit and crisp apple fruit. Quite a delicate take for Malartic with the focus on purity and delicacy rather than weight and fullness. Less lively than it can be, but still there’s a soft mouthwatering aspect. It’s sophisticated and round with nice complexity. The cooling element really lingers. No bitterness. A yield of 36hl/ha. 3.3pH." 03/26

92-94 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2025 Malartic-Lagravière Blanc has a well-defined nose, but perhaps like the Domaine de Chevalier Blanc, it feels bashful at this early stage. The palate is well balanced, with a peachy entry and, here, it is more expressive, with hints of mango and Clementine, just a little oak guiding the finish. Not quite up there with the outstanding '24, but close." 05/26

96-97 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "This is so classy, with polish, transparency, a medium body and fresh acidity. Linear and racy, with a bright, icy finish and a steely and lightly bitter character at the end. An outstanding white." 04/26

91 Points, Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux: "Carefully constructed if subdued at this early stage, white pears, cinammon, cumin, slate, preserved lemons. Plenty of ageing potential. Yield 36.5 hl/ha." 04/26
