Producer Profile

Château d'Armailhac, Cru Classé Pauillac

Château d'Armailhac is a Cinquième Cru Classé in Pauillac, under the same ownership as sister-estates Châteaux Mouton-Rothschild and Clerc-Milon.  In fact, Armailhac's vines were once part of the larger Mouton estate.  Baron Philippe Rothschild purchased the estate in 1934.  The 70 hectare vineyard is planted to 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot.  

If you closely a the photograph of the château, you may notice it is only half-built.  Famously, when it was constructed in 1810, the owners ran out of money and had to stop work before the right-hand side could be built.

Tasting Notes"Deep aromas of raspberries, cherries, crushed mint and spices preface the 2022 d'Armailhac, a medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated wine that's deep, lively and seamless, framed by powdery tannins and concluding with a penetrating finish. 92-94 points" William Kelley, RobertParker.com ------"This is like a baby Mouton this year with blackcurrant, flower, and orange aromas. Medium- to full-bodied with a tight and racy palate that shows persistence and verve. One to watch. 96-97 points" jamessuckling.com
