Château d'Armailhac Pauillac 5ème Grand Cru Classé 2005

Chateau d'Armailhac Pauillac 5eme Grand Cru Classe 2005

83.50 € Tax included

This Château d'Armailhac 5ème Grand Cru Classé 2005 has a lovely colour, deep and sustained. The nose delicately combines floral notes, fruity notes of blackberry and cherry and notes of fresh fruit reminiscent of nectar. The mid-palate is full-bodied, very dense, revealing a tannic structure that is already well coated, giving an impression of flesh and volume, pleasantly supported by fine woody and toasted notes. The finish is long and fleshy, revealing a perfect balance between well-structured structure, roundness and volume; Beautiful aromatic expressions, rich and tasty.

In 1933, Baron Philippe de Rothschild acquired this Cru which since the 18th century had belonged to the d'Armailhac family whose name it bore: Château Mouton d'Armailhac. Between 1956 and 1988, it was successively called Château Mouton Baron Philippe and then Château Mouton Baronne Philippe. Since 1989, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild has returned it to its original identity.

You can also find all the wines of the magnificent 2005 vintage currently on sale at La Bouteille Dorée.
