The 1986 Sociando-Mallet was picked between September 30 and October 11 and is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It has a perfumed nose of potpourri, lavender, red fruit and a touch of wild fennel. It does not quite have the bucolic charm of the 1985, but it is still respectable. The fresh palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, a ferrous midpalate and impressive tension and vigor toward the finish. A pinch of white pepper lingers on the aftertaste, completing what is a very decent 1986 Sociando-Mallet that continues to drink well. Tasted at the vertical tasting at Sociando-Mallet.
