Chateau Malescot Saint Exupery Margaux Rouge 2016

In 1697, Louise Escousses sold the property (the winery) to Master Simon Malescot, adviser to the French monarch Louis XIV for the Bordeaux Parliament. He gave his name to the property.
On 5 th February 1827, Count Jean-Baptiste de Saint-Exupéry, who was the great-grandfather of the French aviator and author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, acquired Château Malescot. He decided to enrich the property’s name by adding his own. Jean-Baptiste lived a life beyond his means, and his widow had to sell the property by auction in 1853.
In 1870, Messrs. Fourcade and Boissac gave Malescot a chateau worthy of the wine’s rank with a winery (à enlever les vignes existaient déjà) and cellars that were a model for the other Medoc properties. Nevertheless, they had to come to terms with having to sell it in 1901.
An uncertain period engendered by a series of successive owners then followed the previous stability.On 1 st June 1955, Paul and Roger Zuger acquired the estate, when it had no more than 7 hectares (17 acres). Today the property consists of 28 hectares (69 acres) benefitting from the Margaux appellation. Three generations of the Zuger family have worked in turn to put the estate back on track and restore its reputation. In 1994 Jean- Luc took over from his father Roger.
Today the property is owned by Catherine and Jean-Luc Zuger. Jean-Luc is the general manager and strives to make Malescot Saint-Exupéry one of the great names within the Margaux appellation.
