Dominique Armailhac bought the place in 1680 from wine prince Nicolas-Alexandre de Ségur and named it Chateau Mouton-d’Armailhacq. In 1831, the manor introduced a new cleaning and disinfection technology, which doubled its output and sales, and was affirmed by the five-level manor in 1855.

Wine Advocate-Parker :
The 2018 D'Armailhac (14.5% alcohol) is composed of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot, harvested September 12 to October 3. Deep garnet-purple colored, it reveals a very fruity nose of crushed blackberries, warm black cherries and mulberries plus hints of potpourri, spice cake and pencil shavings. Full-bodied, the decadent palate delivers loads of black berry layers and a firm, grainy frame with underlying freshness and an earthy finish. Wonderfully opulent D'Armailhac !
