Chateau Sociando-Mallet (2009) 750 ML

James Suckling, 94/100: "Lots of currants, berries and chocolate on the nose and palate. Full and chewy. Solid tannin structure." Producer's Notes: Château Sociando-Mallet produces full-bodied wines with a deep, dark colour. Their complex bouquet is usually dominated by black fruit aromas with a touch of minerality and well-integrated, elegant oak. Often somewhat "virile" when young, the wines gain in balance and complexity with age. They are fresh, straightforward, and have a wonderful length. Château Sociando-Mallet has always been a wine with great ageing potential. A wine to be enjoyed even after 30 years in great vintages.
