Le Moulin Rose de Malescasse Haut-Médoc AOP

Le Moulin Rose de Malescasse is the second wine of Château Malescasse in the Haut-Médoc. Named after the estate’s historic windmill, the grapes for this cuvée come from plots in its immediate vicinity. The blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot gives the wine a balanced and elegant style typical of the Médoc. Its silky texture makes it pleasantly approachable even in its youth.

The blend consists of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45.5% Merlot, and 5.5% Petit Verdot. After destemming, the grapes are selected by hand and vinified by plot in small wooden and concrete tanks. No pre-crushing is performed. The maceration period lasts up to four weeks, during which the tannins are gently extracted by carefully punching down the cap and performing brief pump-overs. The wine is then aged for twelve months, primarily in one- and two-year-old oak barrels, with one-third aged in large wooden tanks.

On the nose, the wine displays intense aromas of elderberries, black currants, blackberries, and fresh blue raspberries, accompanied by a subtle, gently integrated woody note. On the palate, it is lively and elegant, with fine tannins, good structure, and a long finish.

Le Moulin Rose de Malescasse pairs excellently with grilled or pan-seared beef, lamb, and game dishes. It is also a harmonious accompaniment to braised meats or aged hard cheeses.

Product recommendation

Château Malescasse Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois AOP 2022
Château Malescasse is a reflection of this exceptional vintage. Malescasse, owned by Philippe Austruy since 2012, has been on an admirable upward trajectory ever since. The dedication and investments that have benefited Malescasse have now been rewarded with its classification as a Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel in 2020.The wine is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot. This red wine impresses with deep, dark hues and violet highlights. On the nose, it offers notes of black cherry, blackberry, caramel, and a hint of mint. Overall, it offers plenty of intensity, abundant fruit, and a creaminess and sweetness that nonetheless do not lack complexity. So, this is no “fruit compote,” but rather a lush bouquet, balanced by fine tannins and a very long finish.This charmer still has a long life ahead of it and will benefit from being allowed to rest a while until it has fully developed in the bottle. This should be the case around 2025. However, those who simply can’t wait should decant the Château Malescasse at least 1–1½ hours in advance.Due to its intensity, this is a wine that’s particularly impressive on its own. But it also pairs wonderfully with game, goulash, or pasta.

Château Malescasse Haut-Médoc Cru Bourgeois AOP 2014
2020 wurde Château Malescasse in den Rang eines Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel gehoben, die höchste Stufe, die es innerhalb dieser Klassifikation zu erreichen gilt."Schuld" daran dürfte auch der 2014 Malescasse sein, der als erster Jahrgang unter Mitwirkung des Star-Önologen Stéphane Derononcourt entstand. 54% Merlot, 36% Cabernet Sauvignon und 10% Petit Verdot machen eine im besten Sinne runde Assemblage aus, wobei die malolaktische Gärung im Holzfass stattfand, bei 35% Neufassanteil und der Wein schließlich für volle 14 Monate in den Fässern nachreifen durfte.Eine rubinrote Farbe begrüßt uns, in der ausdrucksstarken Nase begegnen uns Schwarze Johannisbeere, Brombeere und Himbeere, alle mit einer schönen, reifen Note. Aromen von Röstmokka verleihen dem Wein eine große Eleganz und Komplexität. Am Gaumen sehr rund und stoffig, mit einem perfekten Spiel von Säure und Alkohol. Die Tannine sind seidig und führen zum ausgesprochen langanhaltenden und intensiven Ausklang hin.Wir empfehlen, den Wein mindestens eine halbe Stunde lang zu dekantieren.
