James Suckling 95
Already on the nose there's another level of complexity and sophistication to the other wines from this appellation. Although it starts quite discreetly on the palate, it expands as fast as the universe did just after the Big Bang until the multidimensional finish almost overwhelms you! Best in years.

The 2014 Sociando-Mallet put in a great performance in barrel. Now in bottle, the sophistication is evident on the nose with beautifully defined black fruit tinged with cedar and graphite. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple tannin, a silver bead of acidity and superb focus towards the finish. The energy here is superb and it tempts you back immediately for another sip. Probably a Sociano-Mallet that will drink young, yet there is the class to suggest it will age supremely well.

2014 Sociando Mallet - Firm, bright, crisp and fresh, with blackberry, tobacco, smoke and spicy cassis character, the wine is full bodied, tannic and should age well.Estate
Chateau Sociando-Mallet produces full-bodied wines with a deep dark color. Their bouquet is complex, usually dominated by notes of black fruits, a touch of minerality and a well integrated fine woody. Often a bit "virile" in their youth, wines gain in harmony and complexity with age. They are characterized by their freshness, their straightness and their beautiful length.Chateau Sociando-Mallet is traditionally a long-keeping wine whose great vintages will drink with happiness even after 30 years of cellar.
