A very sexy wine. Pliant, open-knit and delicious, the 2015 is super-classy. Sweet red cherry, pomegranate, blood orange and floral notes are seamlessly woven together in a surprisingly finessed wine for this property. Gracious and racy to the core, d'Armailhac is quite attractive. Based on what I have tasted over the last few years, quality appears to be on the rise, and that is always great to see.Â
VINTAGE NOTE: Overall, the 2015 vintage for Pauillac was brilliant and a wide range of excellent wines were produced. Although some wines will undoubtedly be approachable early, due to their tannic nature, however, the majority will likely benefit from some time in the cellar and the very top could develop for decades.
