My go to Bordeaux classic. Small black fruits, tobacco, cigar boxes and the ever present stubborn dusty bitter note. — 19 days ago

NOSE: cooked meat, tree bark, elderberry, tobacco.

TASTE: cassis, espresso, bitter wood. It’s simple Bordeaux without overt flaws. Could use age - but amazing deal for the $7 I paid. I think … barely 90. — 10 months ago

Winery is family-run & has links with the wine world going back 3 generations. Founded by Emilio Moro who was born in Pesquera de Duero, a prominent Spanish wine area. Made from grapes of old vineyards, between 25 and 75 years old, from the Camino Viejo estate. Malleolus is a Latin word meaning “small hammer or mallet” used in planting, and “majuelo” Spanish for “young vine” a traditional way of referring to a vineyard in Pesquera del Duero. Deep red subtle fruit aromas with espresso and smoky notes. Blackberry & cherry with vanilla spice on full lush tannins needing more time. Well balanced, complex, lingering with earthy finish. — 7 years ago

Vintage 2018 | Often Sociando Mallet really needs time. 2018 is gorgeous now. Plums, blackberries, hint of raspberries, great balance. Good acidity. Amazing soft tannins. What a wine! — 4 months ago

Literally just a short hop west of Sociando Mallet, a great Bordeaux I’ve bought and cellared since the great 1982, this is an 85% CS/15% M Haut-Medoc that is quite fine, definitely shows a solid tannic backbone, lovely fruit, medium-long finish, I’d guess 7-10 years easily of further development, only troubling thing for me is the 14.5% ABV, but lovely wine nonetheless. — 2 years ago
