Château d'Armailhac Pauillac (Grand Cru Classé) 2018

The nose was a opulent and intense experience, with a bold and opulent fruit profile that included deep fruit, plum, and a dash of plum as well, all of which were expertly well integrated and harmonious. On the palate, the fruit quality remained vibrant and juicy, with a subtle tartness that added richness and complexity, importantly in the form of a tart cranberry note. Overall, the wine was a masterclass in stability and restraint, with a close that was both rewarding and elegant.

Rich, smooth structure unfolds on the palate, with whispers of opaque fruit and soft oak accents that linger in the background. The trail is long and satisfying, with a smooth, dry leather quality that leaves a unfading impression.

Wine with a pale ruby hue, featuring a medium intensity nose with soft notes. The taste is dry, with high tannins and acidity, accompanied by a medium flavor intensity and a short, unbalanced finish.
