CRITIC REVIEWS
Tom Parker MW
55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot. Deep ruby. Smoky ripe nose of dark cherry and cedar. Good middle fruit, quite chalky and austere tannins that are a little awkward against the overall structure. Good fresh acids but a hint of dried fruit on the back end. (TP)
Jane Anson
This is clearly one of the most concentrated d’Armailhacs that has been produced in recent decades owing to the extremely small and concentrated berries, especially Cabernet Sauvignon, harvested at the end of the growing season. It’s also one of the best, with clear personality and power, and although still the least complex of the three Pauillacs in the Mouton stable, it should offer the best value giving a ton of rich fruit and cigar box frisson. 5% Petit Verdot makes up the blend. 3.7pH. Tasted several times – always with the same impression.
