The wine has an attractive, forthright red color and a refined, fruity nose on which cherry aromas mingle with violet and tobacco. Round on the palate, with plenty of body and heft, it wraps its already silky tannins around a host of succulent flavors (red fruit, caramel, liquorice, menthol, roast coffee) to make a richly aromatic whole. The finish bursts with fruit, rounding off a complete, refined and well-structured wine that is both vigorous and seductive, embodying all the allure of a very fine d'Armailhac.
Wine Spectator

Loads of currant, berry and light toasted oak on the nose with hints of milk chocolate. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a medium-long finish. Thick texture. Nicely crafted and balanced. Best after 2011.
Wine Advocate

The deep ruby/purple-hued 2003 d'Armailhac exhibits notes of Asian plum sauce interwoven with creme de cassis, licorice, and roasted herbs. With moderately high yet sweet tannin, an earthy character, and chewy, muscular, deep fruit as well as medium to full body, it should be drunk between 2008-2019.
