Made in a beautiful, elegant, zesty style, the 2005 Malartic Lagraviere offers copious quantities of honeyed grapefruit and other assorted citrus, crushed rock, spring flower, nectarine, and marmalade as well as brilliant acidity, and a bright, refreshing, mineral-dominated personality. It should evolve for 10-15 or more years.
Pairing: Fish Stew, Omelets, Pasta, Soups and Creams.
Domaine de Lagravière set on the oldest terroir of the Bordeaux vineyards was purchased at the end of the 18th century by the family of Maurès de Malartic. As a tribute to Hippolyte Count of Malartic, who served the armies of the Kings of France, the Château was named Malartic-Lagravière in... 1850 by the new owner at that tine Madame Ricard. Bought by the Belgian couple Michèle and Alfred-Alexandre Bonnie in 1996, a new course was set for this estate which has kept the Count of Malartic's ship as part of their emblem.
