Description

France / Bordeaux / Médoc / Pauillac

Since Baron Philippe de Rothschild took over the estate in 1933, the history of Château d'Armailhac has been inextricably linked to that of Château Mouton Rothschild. The vineyards of the two châteaux are adjacent and are managed by the same team. The soils of Château d'Armailhac's vineyards consist of light and very deep gravel on a clay-limestone base – the preferred terroir for Cabernet grapes. Here grow vines over 130 years old, some of the oldest in the Médoc. The terroir and the old vines give the wines their elegant Pauillac character with concentrated aromas and a smooth texture.
