Tasting Notes
Expect a deep, dark ruby color in the glass. The nose typically leans toward blackcurrant, blackberry, graphite, cedar, and subtle floral or spice notes, with a refined, earthy edge that reflects the estate’s classic style. On the palate, Sociando-Mallet is usually firm, precise, and layered, combining ripe dark fruit with vibrant freshness, fine tannins, and a long, savory finish. The 2023 should have strong aging potential, developing additional complexity with several years in bottle.

Production

Sociando-Mallet is known for careful vineyard work and a vinification approach aimed at preserving purity, structure, and terroir expression, resulting in a wine with notable balance and character.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for roast lamb, grilled ribeye, duck breast, game dishes, and slow-cooked beef preparations. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to open up fully.
