Wines from Chateau D'Armailhac

Chateau D'Armailhac

The story of Château d'Armailhac dates back to the 17th century. By 1680, the two brothers Dominique and Guilhem Armailhacq already owned the first parcels of land in Pauillac. Only 70 years later, these plots were planted with vines. The number of hectares increased rapidly, as by the end of the 18th century the vineyard already covered more than 50 hectares. After some tough years that included the phylloxera plague and the First World War, Baron Philippe de Rothschild became the owner of the then Mouton d'Armailhac in 1934. He named the château after himself and from then on the winery continued under the name Mouton Baron Philippe. It was Baroness Philippine who in '89 gave the winery back its original identity and changed the name to Château d'Armailhac.

The vineyard area today covers 70 hectares, 20% of which consists of the original vines from 1890. The vineyard is divided into three parcels: Plateau des Levantines et l'Obélisque, Plateau de Pibran and Croupe de Béhéré. The planting consists of 52% cabernet sauvignon, 36% merlot, 10% cabernet franc and 2% petit verdot. The terroir is characterised by clay, limestone and deep gravel soils.

Château d'Armailhac is part of Bordeaux's famous 1855 classification. The winery is listed as a 5th cru. Because d'Armailhac is owned by Château Mouton Rothschild, the vinification of both houses takes place in the same cellar. The wine's blend is always dominated by cabernet sauvignon. After fermentation, the wine matures for an average of 15-18 months in oak barrels. Château d'Armailhac's grand vin has an intense bouquet, elegant tannins and a long finish. The best vintages are: 2016, 2018, 2019 and 2020.
