Over het wijnhuis | Château Sociando-Mallet is een naam om te onthouden. Het is gevestigd in Saint-Seurin-de-Cadourne, een mini-dorpje in het noorden van de Haut-Médoc op nog geen vijf kilometer afstand van Château Calon-Ségur, een Grand Cru Classé in het beroemde Saint-Estèphe. Naar verluidt worden de beste wijnen van de Médoc geproduceerd door wijnstokken met uitzicht over de Gironde. “Château Sociando-Mallet has the best view of the Gironde of any Médoc château I have visited”, aldus Jancis Robinson. |

Awards | "The 2021 Sociando-Mallet has turned out nicely in bottle, offering up aromas of dark berries and cassis mingled with hints of cigar wrapper and pencil lead. It is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and seamless, with impressive concentration for the vintage, sweet tannins, integrated acids and a penetrating finish." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Mocha, terra-cotta, graphite and black fruit on the nose. Sleek and firm, nicely compact and focused, with a medium body and polished, very fine tannins. Lovely balance and length. Drink from 2025." - James Suckling "The 2021 Sociando-Mallet takes some time to cohere in the glass, though it eventually offers attractive blackberry, brine and cedar scents. A very slight black truffle note lurks in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. This is a pretty Sociando, well-balanced and fresh, gaining depth toward the finish with a bright, sour cherry-edged aftertaste." - Vinous "Juicy and lively, a nice buzz to this straight away, lifted and then controlled by quite prominent minerality that gives the salty undercurrent. Doesn't quite sustain so much weight - but this is well balanced, carefully delivered with integrated tannins - just grainy and supportive, with a general feeling of energy, tanginess and freshness at the start and finish. A nice glass. Not big, but refined, elegant and well presented. Has some charm." - Decanter |
