SOCIANDO MALLET 2025

A classic, serious Haut-Médoc, the 2025 Château Sociando Mallet sports a dense purple hue as well as smoky tobacco, assorted red and black fruits, and spicy oak on the nose. It's medium-bodied on the palate, with a nicely concentrated mouthfeel, ripe, firmer tannins, and a great finish. It's going to be a classic Sociando that will have 30 years of overall longevity.

The 2025 Sociando-Mallet is a total head-turner. What a wine. Dark and explosive, with tons of energy, the 2025 is fabulous right out of the gate. Supple contours and plush dark fruit announce an important wine of tremendous pedigree and character. Dark red/blue fruit and exotic spice tones lend richness and vibrancy, while brisk acids convey salivating energy.

Dark fruit with a touch of graphite on the nose. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with focused tannins that are discreet yet expressive and a subtle, juicy dark fruit character.

A particularly accomplished effort, the 2025 Sociando-Mallet reveals a layered bouquet of mulberries, cassis, raspberry and spice. Medium- to full-bodied, it combines density with a controlled sense of power, built around a supple, well-defined core of fruit framed by a seamless tannic structure. The finish is long and gently ethereal, marked by notes of lead pencil and dark berries. While faithful to the estate’s identity, it shows greater precision and a more integrated profile than in recent vintages, a result of very low yields, sulfur-free vinification enhancing aromatic clarity and an extended maceration.
