2019 Château Sociando-Mallet, Haut-Médoc
A wine of real substance the Sociando-Mallet 2019 is a tremendous, cassis-driven claret with shavings of graphite, pepper spice with a cedar and tobacco core. Fleshy through the mid-palate with plenty of energy and substance it is a wine that still feels youthful and with a long life ahead of it. It speaks of a great terroir and great vintage - brilliant value.
