Winemaker Notes

Uniformity and perfect health are the vintage's key characteristics. This result is a truly sublime expression of Malartic's mosaic of terroirs. Each plot has been able to reveal its full personality. The rich aromatic palate has been enhanced by a soft and tailor-made ageing that reinforced the expression of a very nice complexity.

Blend: 85% Sauvignon Blanc, 15% Semillon

    Very vibrant lemons and limes with tropical fruit. Hints of mangeso and melon. The palate has silky, smooth fruit with seamless build and flow. Impressive. 85% sauvignon and 15% semillon. Drink or hold.

    What a splendid combination of freshness and creaminess in 2015! This is a wine that is both balanced and refined, with precision and ripeness, displaying subtle flavours of acacia, honey, citrus and white flowers with excellent integration of the 65% new oak that had been used for the 12 months aging. Lees stirring lends complexity. Pair with lobster in butter and lemon. Merchants from Hong Kong to Washington D.C. stress how this wine has improved over the years, with oenologist contributions from Michel Rolland and Athanase Fakorellis and, since the 2019 vintage, consultant Eric Boissenot.

    A blend of 85% Sauvignon and 15% Sémillon, the 2015 Malartic-Lagravière Blanc is straight up smokin’ good. Made under the guidance of Michel Rolland, it boasts tons of minerality as well as classic citrus, lime and tangerine nuances. With terrific elegance, a fresh, elegant texture, and impressive concentration, it just another example of how good the whites are from the Graves region in 2015. Tasted three times.

    The Malartic Lagraviere 2015 Blanc, a blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Sémillon, fermented in barrels, 65% of which were new and 35% of which were one year old, and the wine remained in barrel on its lees for 12 months. It features lovely lime juice, lemon zest and green apple notes with fresh straw and crushed stones plus a hint of white blossoms. The medium-bodied palate is fine, racy and refreshing with great intensity and length.
  • 91
    Juicy, with a lightly toasted macadamia nut note around the core of creamed white peach, star fruit and lemon curd flavors. Due to the richness, this leans more toward the flattering style, though this retains enough acidity for balance. Drink now through 2020.
