The estate and the wine |
|
|
A true icon among Bordeaux estates, Château Sociando-Mallet has firmly held its place as the Médoc’s top unclassified wine for more than 25 years. Critics regularly place it on par with, or even above, several Second and Third Growths.
The estate sits on a superb terroir, comparable to that of Montrose, and focuses on revealing the depth and tension of Cabernet Sauvignon, softened by the velvety texture that only exceptional Merlot can bring. It's a reference point for the Médoc, known for its distinctive style and remarkable texture on the palate.
The 2024 vintage stays true to its Médoc roots while gaining an extra layer of finesse. The wine offers generous structure and harmony, with ripe black fruit flavors, a touch of floral lift, and a fresh, balanced finish.
A rock-solid label, still accessibly priced—and absolutely deserving of a spot in any enthusiast’s cellar. |
