2022 Chateau d’Armailhac 5eme Cru Classe, Pauillac 6x750ml

Vinous 90

The 2022 Armailhac is effusive and aromatic, with an extra kick of fruit intensity and richness from the warm, dry growing season, there’s no austerity at all in this young Armailhac. Hints of white pepper, blood orange and mint lend further brilliance. This is very nicely done. A sample presented at Mouton-Rothschild was five days old and oxidized. [Antonio Galloni, 05/09/2023]
