Rated 96/100 by the Revue du Vin de France « Le nez impose la belle ampleur du vin, avec des notes de fruits noirs. On retrouve cette signature en bouche. Le vin est gras, généreux, mais aussi civilisé dans la définition de ses tanins. Très prometteur. » (Nov. 2020)

Rated 93+/100 by Neal Martin « The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity, a subtle marine influence here with a precise and persistent finish. This is one of the best Margaux wines in 2017 and comes highly recommended. » (Feb. 2020)
Rated 93+/100 by Antonio Galloni « In this vintage, Malescot is a bit more fruity and less structured than it has been. Cedar, licorice, dried herbs, menthol and scorched earth notes give the 2017 a distinctly savory feel to match its somber, virile personality. The 2017 is a wine that keeps getting better each time I taste it. » (March 2020)
