  Weinwisser
  "Mitteldunkles Granat, dezent oranger Rand. Zu Beginn leicht stechendes Bouquet, Bakelit, dann erdige Noten, schliesslich immer süsser werdend, einen Hauch Malaga vermittelnd. Im Gaumen angenehm undrund, weiche Konturen, deutlich erkennbar, dass die Genussreife erreicht ist, aber noch gut sechs weitere Jahre anhalten wird."

  The Wine Advocate
  "The 1999 Sociando-Mallet is an unusually structured, extracted wine in this generally rather forward vintage. Offering up aromas of cassis, cherries and loamy soil, framed by a discreet patina from its élevage in barrel, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and nicely concentrated, with ripe acids and rich tannins that still assert themselves on the finish. This is one 1999 that still amply benefits from an hour in a decanter before drinking, but age is being kind to it."
