Le Sillage de Malartic

Le Sillage de Malartic is a refined second wine produced by the famous Château Malartic-Lagravière. This wine is made from carefully selected grapes from old vines. After fermentation, it is aged in oak barrels for about 12 months, which gives it depth and structure.

This 1997 vintage has a deep ruby color, typical of a well-built Bordeaux. Its exceptional clarity testifies to careful winemaking. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of ripe red fruits. Notes of blackberries, cherries and plums are complemented by spicy notes and a subtle woody character, adding complexity to the profile. The mouth is full and the acidity is balanced. The fruitiness of the wine is enhanced by velvety tannins. Aromas of red fruits and blackcurrant evolve towards a smooth finish, with a touch of vanilla and toasted oak. The ensemble is elegant, with a lingering finish.
