Viel Kraft. warten (2019 - 2035)89 Robert ParkerDeep garnet colored, the 2010 Sociando-Mallet charges out of the gate with open-knit, maturing scents of baked blackberries, warm cassis and plum preserves followed by notes of sandalwood, cedar chest and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a firm, grippy texture and bold freshness supporting the evolved, slightly drying fruit, finishing a bit chewy. Producer Château Sociando MalletChâteau Sociando Mallet is without a doubt the most impressive estate in the Haut-Medoc region. Nestled in the village of Saint-Seurin-de-Cadourne, it has been producing quality Cru Bourgeois for decades. Jean Gautreau, a native of the Médoc and a former wine merchant, discovered the property by chance in 1969 when he was looking for a property for a Belgian client. It was love at first sight, and he bought the estate with its 5 hectares of vines and its dilapidated buildings. Jean Gautreau completely transformed the property, expanding the vineyard, renovating the buildings and even building a brand new winery. His efforts have resulted in an impressive estate, incorporating 85 hectares of vineyards. Sociando-Mallet today stands as a monumental blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The Grand Vin, with a certain aging potential, displays a typical style of wines meant for aging, with soft and youthful tannins that make it an unforgettable red.
