Tasting notes
This soft, peppery, herb-tinged, dark ruby-colored wine possesses excellent fruit, a supple texture, and round, agreeable, easy to understand and consume flavors. It should be drunk over the next 6-8 years. It is a good, reasonably-priced Pauillac for restaurants and consumers looking for immediate gratification.

Beautifully balanced, boasting lovely currant, mineral and black cherry flavors, medium to full body, good complexity and well-integrated tannins. Should improve with age. try in 1999. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 1996.

About the producer
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.
