The estate spans 25 hectares of clay-limestone and silty-clay soils, which the winery’s philosophy leverages to produce a "taut and always very fruity" identity.
Wine Description
The Château Armens Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 2019 presents a deep, intense red colour. The sensory profile is rich and aromatic, featuring a primary nose of blackberry, plum, and blackcurrant, layered with sophisticated notes of clove, nutmeg, and licorice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-balanced, showcasing a velvety texture with grippy medium tannins and a vibrant, "tummy-warming" fruit core. It is characterized by its elegance and depth, leading to a long, sophisticated finish with subtle hints of mocha, vanilla, and toasted oak from 12 months of aging in French oak barrels. This Merlot-dominant blend typically has an ABV of 14.5% and is currently in its prime maturity phase.
