Château Angélus

Château Angélus

One of the highlights of Saint-Emilion is the Domaine d'Angélus, classified as a Premier Grand Cru in 1996. Covering 39 hectares, the name of this terroir refers to the bell towers where winegrowers used to ring the Angelus. This is what has earned this Bordeaux wine its international reputation. Its production, which takes place on a natural amphitheatre, is half Merlot and 47% Cabernet Franc. A small parcel is dedicated to Cabernet Sauvignon. Maturation lasts between 18 and 22 months in new barrels. The estate was one of the first in Bordeaux to experiment with early barrel ageing.

The results are there for all to see. To say that Angelus wines are perfect is an understatement. If we have to single out just oneAngelus wine, let's mention the 2000, which is quite simply anthological. Other vintages also shone: the 2005 and 2009 were sublime. On the whole, these are wines for laying down. For the more impatient, we recommend a 'Carillon d'Angélus'. This has been designed to be enjoyed immediately.

Château Angélus is a classified growth in Saint-Emilion in France, owned by the Boüard de Laforest family. The red wine produced is considered to be one of the best in the region, thanks in particular to its environmentally-friendly organic viticulture. The Angélus vintages are considered to be a first-class grand cru.
