‘The 2021 d'Armailhac has turned out beautifully, bursting with attractive aromas of minty cassis and blackberries mingled with notions of pencil shavings and sweet pipe tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, ample and polished, it's supple and seamless, with a fleshy core of fruit and a licorice-inflected finish. En primeur, I compared this to a modern-day version of the estate's immensely charming 1999, and anyone who remembers the 1999 will find that the 2021 delivers just as wide a drinking window. 2026-2041’ - William Kelley, Wine Advocate, 92/100

Producer information | Château d’Armailhac was once a part of Château Mouton Rothschild, as we know it today. The estate gets its name from the two d’Armailhacq brothers who first owned the land. After many years, the d’Armailhacq family fell into debt, and the construction of the château on the property had to come to an end. Today, the château is still only half complete, and has become part of the tradition of d’Armailhac. |
