Score 83/100 · Drink 2022-2034, Neal Martin, Sep 2022
The 1962 Malartic Lagravière is dry and a little mealy on the nose with light mulchy and fungal scents, bereft of counterbalancing fruit. This is not as clean as I would have liked. The palate is medium-bodied with dry, slightly ossified tannins and a hollow finish. This was never a great era for this Pessac-Léognan, and this 1962 attests to that. Tasted at the Académie du Vin dinner in Bordeaux.

About the producer

Malartic Lagraviere
One of few estates classified for both red and white wine production, Malartic-Lagravière was renovated entirely after the Bonnie family purchased it in 1996. They also expanded the property to its current 53 hectares.
