Château Sociando-Mallet 2006 is a full-bodied, Cabernet Sauvignon-based red wine from the Haut-Médoc region of Bordeaux. Château Sociando-Mallet produces full-bodied wines with a deep, dark colour. Their complex bouquet is usually dominated by black fruit aromas with a touch of minerality and well-integrated, elegant oak. The 2006 contains a higher-than-usual proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon in the assemblage. "Tasted blind at Farr Vintners` 2006 tasting, the 2006 Château Sociando Mallet displayed a lifted and sprightly bouquet with black fruit, scorched earth, fresh mint and smoky aromas - quasi-Pauillac in style. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and a keen line of acidity, fresh in the mouth with a saline tincture towards the composed finish. There is impressive freshness here...it conveys energy." Wine Advocate, 2016

The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and a keen line of acidity, fresh in the mouth with a saline tincture towards the composed finish. There is impressive freshness here, not overly complex for sure, but it conveys energy. Drink now and over the next decade. Tasted April 2016.Neal Martin30th May 2016
