Château Sociando Mallet
Haut Medoc
Description
An unclassified Médoc property that can rival the greatest Médoc wines… This domain’s vineyards sit on some of the gravel terrois in Médoc. Long run by its signature owner, Jean Gautreau, who bought the property in 1969, it’s now his daughter Sylvie who sits at the helm after the passing of her father in 2019.
This domain is a valued Bordeuax producer with beautiful round, seducing and fresh wines which have great ageing potential.
Vintage 2024 blend: 57% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon.
Wine Advocate: “ A blend of 57% Merlot and 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2024 Sociando-Mallet offers up aromas of cassis, plums and pencil shavings, followed by a medium-bodied, suave and lively palate with good depth and balance. It represents a very strong performance in this challenging vintage.”
