A blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Cabernet Franc, and 23% Merlot, the 1989 d’Armailhac has a medium to deep garnet-brick color. It erupts with powerful notes of crème de cassis, plum pudding, and mince pies, followed by hints of iron ore, unsmoked cigars, and dried rosemary. The light to medium-bodied palate delivers intense dried berries and mineral layers with fantastically silky tannins and a refreshing finish. This was the first vintage under the d’Armailhac label, after Baroness Philippine de Rothschild restored the name to its original identity. In 1956, Mouton d’Armailhacq was renamed Mouton Baron Philippe, then Mouton Baronne Philippe through 1988.
