AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A magnum Haut-medoc Legendary vintage Sociando Mallet 1990
The 1990 Château Sociando-Mallet is widely considered a legendary, reference-point vintage for this unclassified Haut-Médoc estate. Renowned for punchy performance that frequently outshines higher-classified growth Bordeaux wines in blind tastings, this bottle captured the rich, ripe, and concentrated essence of the exceptional 1990 growing season•
Aroma: A complex, boisterous bouquet displaying dark currants, cassis, plums, and pencil shavings, layered over secondary notes of tobacco, cedar, loamy soil, and subtle smoke.
• Palate: Fleshy, full-bodied, and deeply structured. It delivers concentrated dark fruit balanced by lively, refreshing acidity and beautifully melted, silky tannins.
• Current Status: Fully mature. While it features the brick-garnet edges of an advanced vintage, top-tier storage examples remain beautifully integrated, vibrant, and highly drinkable.
• Wine Spectator: 96/100 ("Amazing wine for the vintage... goes on and on.")
• William Kelley (Wine Advocate): 93/100 ("Beautifully balanced... It would embarrass any number of classified growths.")
• Robert Parker: 92/100
Stored in excellent conditions.
