2022ChateauSociando-Mallet

Sans Other Reviews….Aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with hints of mint, violets and licorice introduce the 2022 Sociando-Mallet, a medium to full-bodied, supple and lively wine that’s deep, fleshy and seamless, with powdery tannins that assert themselves with promising youthful grip on the finish. It’s a blend of 63% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc. Readers who remember how this estate acquitted itself in years such as 2003 and 1990 will not be surprised by its quality in 2022.92-94 pointsWilliam Kelley – Wine Advocate (Apr 2023)
