Pauillac 1st wine: 2015 Château d'Armailhac 5. Cru is garnet red with a crimson tint.
The highly expressive nose is remarkable for its intense and radiant red fruit aromas mingled with notes of roasted coffee and marzipan.
The ample and full-bodied attack reveals a well-rounded, silky tannic structure, giving an impression of richness and volume, underlined by a generous and varied range of flavours such as cherry, vanilla, and liquorice.
The long finish is sustained by hints of chocolate.
