The grapes are handpicked, de-stemmed and vinified using traditional methods before undergoing maturation in 30% new oak and 70% second fill barrels.

A fragrant, floral nose with fresh red cherries, berries and touches of cocoa powder and graphite. Bright and poised, this has medium body, vibrant acidity and an expressive finish. No sweetness. Juicier and more classic this year, though not as concentrated. 72% cabernet sauvignon, 14% merlot and 14% cabernet franc.

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.

Keeps things slim through the palate, with emphasis on raspberry leaf and savoury fruits, careful construction but austere. An estate that has been producing really lovely wines over the past few years but is impacted by the challenges of this vintage. 33% new oak barrels for ageing. Harvest 25 September to 9 October, no hail here but a touch of frost, so higher Cabernet Sauvignon than usual, 30hl/h yield.

The 2024 Château D'Armailhac is rock solid, with a juicy, elegant, very perfumed style that doesn't lack for depth or richness. Ripe red and black fruits, violets, spring flowers, and a kiss of spicy oak all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied, with a pure, elegant mouthfeel and ripe, polished tannins. It's clearly an outstanding wine that brings more texture and mid-palate fat than most. The 2024 is 72% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% each of Merlot and Cabernet Franc that's resting in 50% new oak, hitting 12.9% alcohol with a pH of 3.69.
