Imagine the scent of adventure
in the historic birthplace of Bordeaux.
Château Malartic-Lagravière is a beautiful wine estate in the Bordeaux region. A family-run property with a rich history, it is one of the jewels of Bordeaux’s cultural heritage. A Grand Cru Classé near the city of Bordeaux, this estate was first purchased in the 18th century by Admiral Count Hippolyte de Maurès de Malartic, a galant defender of the Kings of France. From 1850, the Ricard family took over until at the end of 1996 the Château entered a new era with the arrival of the Bonnie family. A Grand Cru Classé en Rouge et en Blanc, this family estate is one of exceptional terroir. The recent introduction of 'Le Comte de Malartic' presents offerings of remarkable quality at a more accessible price point. Across various vintages, the wines from Malartic consistently articulate the nobility and unique identity of their terroirs.

Lots of crushed stone, redcurrant and bark aromas and flavors. Cedar, sweet pipe tobacco, mint and floral accents lift a core of sweet red berry fruit.
