Leicht erdiges Bouquet, zeigt eine spannende, ja dezent trüffelige Tiefe, was sein grossartiges Terroir wieder – einmal mehr – anzeigt, dezente Torfnoten, Rauchnuancen, Lakritze und getrocknete Heidelbeeren. Kräftiger, markanter Gaumen, zeigt viel Substanz und ein nachhaltige Finale mit wiederum Lakritze und Brazil-Tabak. Wird sich nicht mehr Verfeinern können, hat dafür aber Charakter. austrinken92 Wine SpectatorPhenomenally good for this estate. Wonderfully rich with cedar, lead pencil and berry character. Has a full body and excellent velvety, concentrated tannins. Needs time; try after 1997.--The Bordeaux 50. -JS 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.
