Château d’Armailhac: a perfect illustration of the Pauillac style
Château d’Armailhac wines are made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot in proportions which vary according to the vintage, since the ideal conditions that allow each terroir and each grape variety to fully express themselves change from one year to another.
The wine is defined by a kind of elegant classicism, discernible whatever the vintage. The tannic structure is both robust and refined, providing a perfect foil for a complex array of aromas and flavours which continue to develop and emerge over time, with consistently forward fruit and typical lead‑pencil notes. Château d’Armailhac has considerable ageing potential but may also be enjoyed young. It is a perfect illustration of the Pauillac style, combining all the features of a great wine while remaining approachable.
