James Suckling
Decadent and attractive with blueberry and blackberry aromas that are abundant and clear. Full body, firm and chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Very structured and poised. Try from 2023.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2016 Maillet is medium to deep garnet-purple colored, and pronounced plums, black cherries and warm black raspberries leap from the glass with hints of mocha and cigar box plus a waft of violets. Full-bodied, rich and packed with generous plum and blackberry preserves layers, it has a solid, velvety frame and fantastic length.

Since the 2014 vintage, they decided to call on the expertise of Hubert de Boüard de Laforest, internationally famous wine-making councilor and also co-owner of Chateau Angelus in Saint-Emilion. This led to the decision of completely renovating the cellar of Pomerol and creating a new cuvée Chateau Mallet. Chateau Mallet is now an award winning wine with character.
