Description

Château d'Armailhac, 5eme Grand Cru Classe, Pauillac, Bordeaux, France, 2010 

Grapes: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc & 2% Petit Verdot, 70ha vineyard on gravel/clay/limestone soil, 46 year old vines, aged 18 months in new & used French oak barrels

The estate was acquired by Baron Philippe de Rothschild of neighbouring Mouton Rothschild in 1933.

Producer Tasting Note:

The colour is dark and intense, almost black. The nose opens on fruit aromas, especially black cherry, followed by toasted, roasted notes. The wine is immediately full and powerful on the attack, with well-rounded tannins and fruit flavours that develop notes of vanilla, roasted coffee and toasted nuts. The long finish is sustained by slightly toasted, oaky flavours. A powerful Château d’Armailhac of considerable refinement.

Critics' Tasting Notes:

"Deep garnet in color, the 2010 D'Armailhac leaps from the glass with vivacious scents of baked raspberries, blueberry pie and kirsch plus hints of candied violets and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has lovely energy with a lively backbone and well-played chewy tannins supporting the delicate flavors, finishing minerally." Drink 2020-2042

92/100 points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, robertparker.com, March 2020 

"Tasted blind. Bricky garnet. Inviting and mature aromas – notes of undergrowth and senescent fruit as well as iron/blood. Opens out to some attractive cassis freshness. Refined, chalky texture. Elegant and long, juicy and a good future still." Drink 2019-2035

17+/20 points, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, February 2020
