Chateau Malescot St Exupery

In 1955, Paul and Roger Zuger acquired the estate, when it had no more than 7 hectares - today the property consists of 28 hectares. Three generations of the Zuger family have worked in turn to put the estate back on the map and restore its reputation. In 1994 Jean- Luc took over from his father Roger, and the estate continues to grow from strength to strength. 

Château Malescot St Exupéry dates back to the 18th century, with records of viticulture on the estate as early as 1616. In 1865, the estate was classified as a Third Growth (Troisième Cru) in the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855. Over the years, it has seen several owners and undergone various changes, but it has maintained a reputation for producing high-quality Bordeaux wines.

The estate has HVE certification. (High Environmental Value) - which means they have to adhere to strict vineyard protocols and constantly work towards more biodiversity in the vineyards.
