Tasting Notes

Deep colour, discreet nose, fleshy fruit and good structure on the palate, good class if rather severe and four-square at the moment. Drink 2013-20.

Decanter Magazine

A fruity wine, with a slightly hollow midpalate, but clean and attractive. Medium tannins and a fresh finish.

James Suckling

This is just a little over-extracted for Sociando Mallet. Saturated black fruits but there is a touch of prune mixed in there. The palate is tannic with good delineation but the finish is green and rather austere. Tasted April 2008.
