Note di degustazione
Investment in this property has seen quality consistently rising in recent vintages – and 2023 is no different. With the high quality of the Cabernet Sauvignon this year, the blend includes more than normal – and the resulting wine speaks of that dominance, full of dark, intense cassis fruit and graphite. There’s clear depth here, while the palate offers contrasting freshness. It’s lithe and lively, revealing floral tones with time in the glass. Delicious. Aged in 50% new oak, 13.5% alcohol, 3.75pH. Blend: 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot

Based on 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Petit Verdot, the 2023 Château D'Armailhac is a rocking little Pauillac offering notes of ripe red and black currants, melted crayon, graphite, and spicy wood. It's medium-bodied and has a ripe, nicely concentrated, balanced, classy profile, with pure tannins and outstanding length. I love its purity, balance, and elegance, and it's going to shine with just a few years of bottle age yet should cruise over the following two decades. Drink 2028-2048.
The 2023 d'Armailhac is a delight. Plump, juicy and explosive, the 2023 is super expressive right out of the gate. A burst of dark red/purplish fruit, cinnamon, rose petal and pomegranate are all dialed up. The change in d'Armailhac's tannin profile over the last few years has been remarkable. Floral overtones lift the attractive finish.
The 2023 d'Armailhac has a delightful bouquet, beautifully defined with pure black fruit laced with graphite. The oak is seamlessly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, laden with (again) graphite-infused black fruit that render this Pauillac through and through. Great precision on the finish, this is a superb d'Armailhac that should age supremely well in bottle.
Informazioni sul produttore
Ch. d’Armailhac is a Pauillac Fifth Growth owned by the Rothschilds, who also own Ch. Mouton Rothschild. Lavished with the same attention to detail and having benefitted from extensive investment in recent years, this estate can offer brilliant value in comparison to its First Growth sibling.
