Avis des critiques de vin
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.

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.

The 2025 Sociando-Mallet has an attractive nose: well defined blackberry and wild strawberry scents, undergrowth and a light black olive scent, almost Graves-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, fine depth, cohesive, with a fresh, classically styled finish that lingers in the mouth. This sample arrived at the end of a long day's tasting, but its qualities still stood out.
- Nom du critique: Neal Martin
A smoky, cool and crisp nose. Ripe on the palate, softly chewy with fleshy blackcurrant but also high acidity, liquorice and salty, flint accents on the finish. Quite tight and restrained, focused and all in one line. A little firm but well balanced just less immediately lively than some. A little one tight still. I imagine after ageing this will round out nicely. -

Intense dark plum, medium to full acidity, earthy and ripe brambled fruits, love this, beautiful depth of aromatics. Definitely one that needs time over ageing to soften and broaden, because there are plenty of elements here, with breadth and power, but pulls up tight on the finish.
