Description
Sumptuous, sophisticated and sexy! This wine has a glorious, flamboyant nose of deep cassis and creamy oak and it is plump and juicy on the palate with a huge, long finish.
DECANTER - Great depth of fruit, deep ripeness and resonant flavours, fine texture and vigour, very good future.
(Steven Spurrier – Decanter – Apr 2011)
JANCIS - The 2010 Ch Sociando Mallet is lively and racy and with more than a hint of young oak! Sweet start and very polished palate. Chewy finish but with lots and lots of sweet fruit. Well done! Quite luscious, very like a fine St-Estèphe.
(Jancis Robinson MW- jancis robinson.com, Apr 2011)
PARKER - A very classic wine for patient connoisseurs, Sociando Mallet makes no compromises and continues to produce one of the finest wines among non-classified estates in Haut-Medoc. Dense purple to the rim, the opaque purple-colored 2010 offers up notes of graphite, blueberry and black raspberry fruit, a hint of cassis, some licorice and wet rocks. Deep, full-bodied and almost excruciatingly tannic, this full-throttle, balls-to-the-wall style of wine needs at least 8-10 years of cellaring and should keep for three decades or more.
(91+ Robert Parker - Wine Advocate - Feb 2013)
