Score 85/100 · Drink 1994-2003, Robert Parker, Feb 1993

The 1990 d'Armailhac is dark ruby/purple, with an expressive nose of smoked nuts, cassis, smoke, and chocolate, this velvety textured, round, agreeable wine lacks structure and length on the palate. It is charming, but less concentrated than the 1989. Anticipated maturity: 1994-2003.

Medium-garnet color, with saddle leather, ripe berry and mineral aromas. Medium- to full-bodied, with firm tannins and a pronounced aftertaste of tar. Not as good as I hoped.--1990 Bordeaux retrospective. Drink now. 18,000 cases made. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2000.

Ch. d’Armailhac is a Pauillac Fifth Growth owned by the Rothschilds, who also own Ch. Mouton Rothschild. Lavished with the same attention to detail and having benefitted from extensive investment in recent years, this estate can offer brilliant value in comparison to its First Growth sibling.
