About the 1973 vintage of Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry

A rare Margaux wine of the 3ème Grand Cru Classé

The 1973 Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry is a characterful collector's item from the heart of Margaux, originating from one of the appellation's most historic estates. As a 3ème Grand Cru Classé according to the 1855 classification, the Château represents elegance, tradition, and remarkable consistency across generations.

Collectors particularly value wines from this period for their historical significance and the clear link between craftsmanship and origin.

The well-preserved bottle features a historic label that retains the winery's distinctive style. The fill level, commensurate with its age, and the careful storage conditions further underscore the authenticity of this example. Bottles from the early 1970s are now rare on the market and increasingly sought after, particularly by collectors looking to complete their Margaux vertical or who prefer historic vintages.

The Château Malescot Saint-Exupéry 1973 is ideal as a special gift for Bordeaux connoisseurs or as a valuable addition to an ambitious collection of mature wines. Its combination of tradition, origin, and rarity makes it a fascinating testament to the winemaking history of Margaux.
