Located in the renowned Saint-Émilion district, Chteau Angélus represents excellence in the panorama of Bordeaux wines. This Premier Grand Cru Classé 'A' comes from grapes grown in vineyards covering 35 hectares, characterised by a clay-limestone soil with a rich presence of gravel. This fortunate combination, typical for the region, combined with a climate influenced by the proximity of the Dordogne, creates an exceptional terroir, perfect for ripening Merlot and Cabernet Franc grapes with unique characteristics. Skilfully blended with a majority of Merlot, the vineyards are planted with vines up to 80 years old. The production philosophy, oriented towards respect for the environment and quality, is based on certified organic principles. Harvesting is manual, with careful selection of the best bunches. Fermentation takes place in steel and cement, preserving the freshness and purity of the fruit. Ageing then takes place in new oak barrels for about 22 months. Pouring Chteau Angélus into the goblet, one discovers a wine characterised by a beautiful intense ruby red colour, with garnet hues. On the nose, ripe black fruits, blackberry, blackcurrant, accompanied by spicy notes, hints of liquorice and sweet tobacco. In the mouth, however, the initial sweetness is well balanced by a refined and elegant tannic texture. The long finish offers a fine aftertaste of ripe fruit and noble spices.
