Sandwiched happily between First Growths, Lafite & Mouton, this is Ch.d' Armailhac's more structured, serious big brother. This impressive effort reveals more layers of flavor than most 2007s. Its deep ruby/violet color is followed by notes of black currants, coffee, & white chocolate, medium to full body, surprising density & purity, & a very good finish. Drink it over the next 10-12 years
