Score 86/100 · Drink 2013, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Jun 2013

Ex-chateau bottle tasted blind in Sauternes. The Chateau de Malle ‘03 has a rather “thin” nose considering the growing season – flat and rather one-dimensional. The palate is better, but it is also simple with light orange peel and walnut notes and then it fades indolently towards the slightly bitter finish. It just comes across as rather fatigued. Drink now. Tasted April 2013.

Score 91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jul 2006

Healthy yellow-gold for the year. Subdued but pure aromas of fresh peach, Cointreau, caramel and vanillin oak. Sweet, very ripe and pure, with impressively concentrated flavors of stone and citrus fruits and spices. Offers excellent precision and lift, especially for this very ripe year. If a few 2003s have not delivered on their early promise, this one is even better than it appeared to be from barrel last spring.
