The 2024 Château d'Armailhac was picked from September 25 to October 8. It has a slightly distant nose at first that demands coaxing from the glass. This is not its usual outgoing self, though that said, it is well-defined with black fruit and light damp loam scents. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a peppery entry. This lingers nicely in the mouth with fine grip and a pleasant roundness that emerges toward the graphite-tinged finish. Give it two or three years in bottle. Score: 90 - 92 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2027-2047 01 May 2025 |

The 2024 d'Armailhac is a very beautiful wine. Dark, layered and intensely aromatic, the 2024 is so expressive. The percentage of Cabernet Franc from 60+ year-old vines is high in this vintage, and that very much comes through in the wine's perfume and saline intensity. All the elements are so well integrated. Dark red-toned fruit, blood orange, spice, cedar and new leather explode on the finish. Tasted two times. Score: 90 - 92 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2032-2044 29 April 2025 |

Lovely deep plum colour, this has some chalky tannins, good depths of cassis and greengage fruits, with the real floral edge of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon, that savoury, precise, elegant side, enjoyble with salinity and lift on the finish, Here the longer stretch of drought than normal of rainfall from end of June to mid September. Harvest began September 25 though to October 8, 3.69 pH. 50% new oak. Score: 92 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2029-2040 23 April 2025 |

Offering up pretty notes of sweet wild berries, rose petals and burning embers, the 2024 d'Armailhac is medium-bodied, bright and precise, with a sweet core of fruit but a somewhat strict, angular profile. If it rounds out with élevage, it will merit a better rating. Score: 87 - 89 William Kelley, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 23 April 2025 |

72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot and 14% Cabernet Franc. Cask sample. Lively and fresh on the nose. Bright and digeste. A little light on the mid palate but has structure and form. (JL) 12.9% Score: 16 Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2030 – 2040 16 April 2024 |
