96 points James Suckling: "Attractive, fresh-lemon and grassy nuances with wild herbs and slightly flinty elements, too. The palate has such intense and fresh acidity. Fine lemons and limes and a thrillingly dry, long finish. Drink now, but better in three years. (12/20/20)."
94 points Wine Enthusiast: "This wine is crisp, fruity and zesty, with a mineral texture. Its herbal character dominates, bringing in green fruits and a beautiful grassy character. The wine is developing well but will be much better from 2021. (03/1/20)."
92 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2017 Chateau Malartic-Lagraviere Blanc has a vibrant, almost racy, medium-bodied style that carries classy melon and citrus fruits as well as a distinct sense of salty minerality. Coming from a 7-hectare sector of their estate vineyard in the Graves region, and 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Semillon, aged 12 months on lees in 50% new oak, it’s a beautiful white to enjoy over the coming 4-6 years or so. Drink 2020-2026. (02/26/20)."
92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2017 Malartic-Lagravière Blanc is laced with lemon confit, crushed rocks, marzipan, almond and dried flowers, all in a style that deftly balances textural richness with a good bit of vibrancy. I very much like the feeling of energy and drive here. Time in the glass brings out a more high-toned register to the aromatics. Tasted two times. Drink 2020-2027. (12/19)."
