2019 Chateau Angelus Premier Grand Cru Classe A, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 6x75cl

Chateau Angelus

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 97

Drink To: 2029-2049

First released in the 1987 vintage, Carillon d’Angélus has since acquired its own distinct identity, separate from its bigger, brasher older sibling. Now with its own winery, Carillon is spread over the cooler plots of the Angélus estate, enabling this Merlot dominant blend to retain its vigour. Representing 20% of the Château’s production, its second wine still receives the same top-class treatment as its first. In turn, this is a highly respected wine that is appreciated for its juicy black fruit aromas, velvety tannins and timeless elegance.

Antonio Galloni

The 2019 Angelus is every bit as impressive as it was from barrel. Silky, medium in body and wonderfully nuanced, the 2019 is pure class. All the elements come together so beautifully as the 2019 builds with a bit of air. Forty percent of the Franc was aged in cask, an approach that works so well here in coaxing all of the energy of Franc to complement the Merlot.

William Kelley

The 2019 Angelus bursts from the glass with a rich, dramatic nose of cherries, licorice, sweet spices and dark chocolate. Full-bodied, layered and vibrant, its broad and velvety attack segues into a layered, concentrated mid-palate that's underpinned by tangy acids and fine, powdery tannins, concluding with a long, penetrating finish. It's a blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc. Its seamless, pure profile reflects the subtle shift chez Angelus away from the rich, toasty style of the 1990s and 2000s toward greater elegance and precision.

Tasted blind. Subtle and lifted nose. Lots of tannin on the end but nuanced fruit - and some coolness - on the way there. Really ripe but fresh fruit. Neat. Superior. (JR)
