VertdeVin
The nose is fruity, silky, racy, powerful and offers a nice finesse. It reveals notes of crushed blackberry, crushed cassis and slight notes of small red fruits, spices combined with a slight hint of tobacco, a hint of zan as well as a discreet hint of Cuben pepper and a discreet hint of toasted oak / vanilla. The mouth is fruity, juicy, straight, well-balanced, fresh, nicely crunchy (fleshy / crunchy fruits), relatively depth and offers a nice roundness / suavity, an acid frame and purity. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry, cassis, blueberry and slight notes of strawberry, blackberry combined with notes of chocolate, caramelized oak and a fine / discreet hint of sweet spices and Vanilla Bourbon. The finish is suave. Good length.
Wine Enthusiast
Sometimes seen as the junior estate in the Mouton-Rothschild stable, this property is now showing its own fine character. The wine is juicy with crisp fruit and soft tannins. It is in a rounded generous style that will allow it to be drinkable relatively soon. Drink starting from 2020.
James Suckling
This is very tannic yet polished and firm with currants, bark, and stones. Full-bodied and muscular and linear. Love the length. Beautiful.
Robert Parker Wine Advocate
The Château d’Armailhac 2014 is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot (slightly more Merlot than usual.) It will be matured in around one-third new oak. The opulence and richness is immediately apparent on the nose with hints of black olive infusing the black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly grainy tannin, quite dense black fruit with a spicy attack towards the saline finish. It feels a little abrasive at the moment but the rough edges should be rounded by the time.
