Chateau de Malleret Haut Medoc 2015

BORDEAUX!! It has been far too long, old, lusty, delicious friend! So good, so immensely satisfying --- we are finally satiated! Don’t miss! 92 POINTS (plus double 90s from Wine Spec and Vinous!), 2015 vintage (a blockbuster) and the best price to be seen on Earth, Westeros or anywhere else!

This wine made us actually pause all the madness on GOT last night to savor its punch, powerful silky texture, its pure, brilliant, lovely streak of cassis and smoky leather…oh baby, if a wine was EVER right for the occasion, this was IT! The Malleret estate has some 400 years of history in the Medoc, and as with so many of the Cru Bourgeois, it’s really in the last decade or so that quality has just exploded upwards --- this is sexy stuff at the old $36 price, but at $19??!

When your box arrives, TEAR INTO IT immediately. Pop that cork and savor with us. The flowing inky-colored fruit, the aromatic woodsmoke...oh, you are going to be STOKED! 2015 is such a round, gorgeous, drinkable vintage  this wine will be great tonight or sometime in 2023 as well, so get a couple extra for the cellar...just landed in our warehouse, but looking at it coming off the forklifts, we think we should have ordered more..! While it lasts!
