品飲筆記：酒色深沉帶紅寶石光暈，前段以黑色果實與黑加侖為主題，隨後點綴雪松、濕石般的礦物感與一絲菸草與糖漬橙皮。酸度清爽俐落，單寧收得乾淨但不生硬，口感介於中等偏飽滿，尾韻修長且優雅，帶著已整合的橡木香。 酒莊介紹：瑪利城堡在Haut-Médoc以傳統與風土表現著稱，風格偏向經典左岸，年輕時有力、隨年齡逐步展現平衡與層次。 釀造與田間：全園手工採收，採果者分小箱送至酒窖，僅以場內天然酵母發酵，在可控溫的不鏽鋼與混凝土槽中細心處理；每日澆渣（pump-over）以萃取色澤與香氣，最後於橡木中熟成約12個月，保留果味同時讓木質單寧柔和入酒。園地坐落於礫石良好排水土壤、受海洋氣候影響，日夜溫差和土壤礦物性造就其清晰的酸度與礦感。 飲用建議：建議醒酒約45分鐘以攤開香氣與口感，搭配烤牛排、鹿肉或熟成乳酪能充份襯托其深度與層次。
Tasting Note: Deep ruby with just a hint of maturation, this Haut-Médoc shows concentrated black fruits—cassis and blackberry—woven with cedar, wet stone minerality and subtle tobacco. Bright, focused acidity frames the palate while fine, well-packed tannins give shape; mid-to-full body leads to a long, clean finish with a whisper of candied orange peel and polished oak. Producer Notes: Château Sociando-Mallet is known for producing robust, classically styled Médoc wines with an emphasis on terroir expression and elegant oak integration. Wines from this estate are often assertive in youth but develop harmony and complexity with age, showing admirable length and freshness. Winemaking Notes: Grapes are hand-harvested into small crates and fermented using native yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel and concrete vats. Daily pump-overs ensure colour and aromatic extraction. Matured for about 12 months in oak, the élevage aims to integrate wood while preserving primary fruit and mineral clarity. Vineyard Notes: Located in the Haut-Médoc, the estate works well-drained gravelly soils under a maritime-influenced climate. Harvest lasts several weeks with careful selection and a large picking team delivering bunches to the cellar in excellent condition—practices that favour precision and freshness in the final wine.
