Score 15/20 · Drink 2004-2010, Jancis Robinson MW, Feb 2011

Very dark crimson. Solid colour. Lots of very ripe fruit. Dangerous wine with quite high volatility. Thick and furry. Very painfully drying tannins on the finish. Not enough juicy fruit in the middle. Inky finish. (JR)

Quite mineral nose. I might take this for Pomerol on the nose! Very sweet and then surprisingly light on the palate. Lightly chewy. Very slightly astringent. Adequate rather than topflight. (JR)

This wine may merit an outstanding rating. It offers a classic Margaux combination of elegance and richness. Medium-bodied, with delicate, beautifully ripe, black currant and floral aromas that compete with subtle new oak, the 1995 Malescot hits the palate with a lovely concoction of fruit, nicely integrated tannin and acidity, and a stylish, graceful feel. This quintessentially elegant Bordeaux should continue to improve in the bottle. A beauty! Anticipated maturity: 2002-2018.

Plenty of plum and floral aromas, with hints of red licorice. Medium- to full-bodied, with fine tannins and a fresh, clean finish. Why wait?--'95/'96 Bordeaux retrospective. Drink now. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 2007
