Château SOCIANDO-MALLET 1981
Château Sociando-Mallet is situated in the commune of Saint-Seurin-de-Cadourne, to the north of the Saint-Estèphe appellation. It was purchased by the current owners in 1969 and spread from 5 hectares of vines to 110 hectares nowadays, which 85 hectares are planted to vines. Plantings are split almost equally between Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with a small proportion of Cabernet Franc.
The wine is vinified in temperature-controlled concrete and stainless steel vats. Sociando-Mallet is aged for 12 months in new French oak.
