"91-93 points: Over the last fifteen years, Malescot Saint-Exupery has possessed a classic Margaux fragrance, a racy, stylish personality, beautiful purity, and a combination of both power and elegance. The deep ruby/purple-tinged 2004 boasts sumptuous aromas of blue fruits, black currants, a whiff of acacia flowers, and a hint of truffles. This medium-bodied Margaux possesses wonderful sweetness, excellent concentration, impeccable balance, and admirable length. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2018."

"89-92 points: Saturated medium ruby-red. Like a coulis of fruit on the nose, with suggestions of coffee, licorice and nutty oak. Dense and chewy in the mouth, with crunchy black cherry, blackberry, licorice and mineral flavors showing some youthful austerity today. Tightened up in the glass and showed a very firm spine, but there's excellent fruit here. A rather powerful, persistent wine that came across as denser and longer than the 2002 in a side-by-side tasting."
