"Once again this estate revealed its excellent quality/price ratio. As one taster so appropriately stated after learning the identity of both the 1989 and 1990 Sociando-Mallets, "I´d rather have the ´89 or ´90 Sociando-Mallet than the ´89 Margaux or ´90 Mouton in my cellar." Both wines showed surprisingly well, performing at second or third-growth levels. The 1990 appears to be the finest Sociando-Mallet since the sensational 1982. The wine possesses an opaque purple color, and a tight but promising nose of thick, cassis, blackcurrant fruit, subtle roasted herbs, smoke, licorice, and minerals. Powerful, super-concentrated, and backward, with layers of flavor and high tannin, this striking wine should evolve for 2-3 decades."
90 THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Full bodied, with a rustic edge to the tannins, the aromatics pop with their earthy, cedar wood, leaf, herb, olive tapenade, cassis and tobacco profile. Drink this classic styled claret now, or age it another 5-10 more years."
Chateau Sociando Mallet begeistert mit dichten, kraftvollen Bordeaux-Weinen vom kargen Kiesboden des Médoc. Das Weingut ist längst vom Geheimtipp zur festen Größe aufgestiegen und bietet unerwartete Tiefe und Finesse.
