D’Armailhac 1989

Price

£103.30

D`Armailhac 1989 is a full-bodied, Cabernet Sauvignon-based red wine from the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux. Formerly known as Mouton d`Armailhac, Château d`Armailhac was designated as a Fifth Growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification and is part of the broader portfolio of estates under Baron Philippe de Rothschild. Recent improvements in quality have elevated Château d`Armailhac`s status, and it is now considered one of the best-value wines in Pauillac. "Dark shaded rusty/ruby and not as intense a colour as the 1986 tasted alongside it. Sweetly fragrant. Gentle texture with some brûlée notes and a hint of iron filings. Fresher than stereotypical 1990. Attractive, pretty, relatively light wine perhaps just past its peak. But it has taken on sweetness and charm since I last tasted it in 2010." Jancis Robinson MW, 2015
