Tasting Notes:
“Deep ruby in colour, smoked oak on the nose, giving power and tannic frame without sacrificing the salinity and florality that is so present in Armailhac. Cassis, loganberry, cigar box, muscular tannins, cocoa bean, ash, a wine full of savour and character. 56% 1st wine. 50% new oak, and extended time in barrel for ageing, up to 18 months. Jean-Paul Voelert technical director.” Score: 94 - Jane Anson, JaneAnson.com, October 2022
Serving Suggestions:
Pairs well with red meat and strong cheeses.
