2015 Chateau d'Armailhac in der Magnumflasche

James Suckling: 93/100 Punkte Berries and smoke with some wet-earth and leather undertones. Medium to full body, round and velvety tannins and a juicy and delicious finish. Like the walnut and coffee undertone. Drink in 2020

Decanter: 92/100 Punkte Lovely florality, lifted fruit and silky tannins. This wine has got both broader and finer over the years and is now totally complete in the feminine d’Armailhac style. Trinkgenuss: 2021 bis 2035

Wine Spectaor: 92/100 PunkteA singed vanilla and alder frame keeps a medium-weight core of plum and black currant fruit coiled up while tobacco and violet details fill in. A pretty, fine-edged chalky spine holds the finish. Trinkgenuss: 2021 bis 2031

Weinwisser (Rene Gabriel): 18/20 Punkte 60 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 29 % Merlot, 9 % Cabernet Franc, 2 % Petit Verdot. Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Delikates Bouquet, Damassinepflaumen und Cassis, sehr frisch und irgendwie verspielt. Im Gaumen zart und saftig, gut balanciert mit wunderbarer, blau-bis schwarzbeeriger Fruchtexpression. Seine Grösse sind die Finessen. Zwei Mal verkostet. Einmal auf Mouton und einmal auf der Union des Grand Crus. Trinkgenuss: 2023 bis 2045 

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 92/100 Punkte Composed of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, the 2015 D'Armailhac displays a medium to deep garnet-purple color and exuberant notions of exotic spices and potpourri over a core of black and red cherry preserves plus wild blueberries and a waft of tar. Medium to full-bodied, the palate reveals mouth-filling, juicy black berry flavors with approachable, grainy tannins and wonderful freshness on the finish. (Lisa Perrotti-Brown)Trinkgenuss: 2019 bis 2034
