Score 89/100 · Drink 2027-2037, Neal Martin, Feb 2026

The 2023 Sociando-Mallet has a more savoury, spicy nose with black fruit and a touch of saddle leather. Quite different, but attractive in its own way. The palate is medium-bodied with soft tannins, red and black fruit together with a slightly caramelly finish. An earlier-drinking Sociando.

The 2023 Sociando-Mallet has a cohesive and focused bouquet, classic Sociando in style. A touch of freshly tilled soil and cedar develops in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with red berry fruit and lightly spiced with black pepper and cedar. Nicely balanced on the finish, this should develop well in bottle, although it lacks a bit of complexity.

The 2023 Sociando-Mallet is a deep, powerful wine. Black cherry, incense, blackberry, licorice and cloves add to an impression of somber gravitas. Unctuous and rich, the 2023 shows the natural intensity of the Merlot in this vintage. Sociando is pretty heady in this vintage.
