Details

Chateau Angelus 2015 is a wine of exceptional quality, characterized by its subtle balance between power and refinement. The wine has a deep, rich color and an intense aromatic profile of ripe, juicy fruit. On the palate, the wine has a clean, suave entry, with tight-grained velvety tannins that contribute to its great purity. The fine days and cool nights of September, accompanied by some showers, favored the ripening of the tannins, resulting in a wine that is both powerful and elegant. The team nicknamed the 2015 vintage "THE MAGNIFIQUE" due to the ideal weather conditions that led to the production of magnificent grapes. Chateau Angelus 2015 has all the charm brought by a sun-drenched vintage with a touch of flamboyant classicism in harmonious balance with the elegance and breed brought by the freshness and tension in the lingering finish.


Robert Parker - 97 Points

"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2015 Angélus is a little closed to begin, soon blossoming into a wonderfully fragrant perfume of raspberry preserves, ripe black plums and chocolate-covered cherries with suggestions of Darjeeling tea, candied violets, spice cake and cinnamon stick with a touch of aniseed. Full-bodied, the palate is fabulously opulent, delivering mouth-coating black and red fruit layers with loads of floral sparkles and a seductively velvety texture, finishing with great length and tension."


Antonio Galloni - 97 Points

"The 2015 Angélus has a calm, cool and collected bouquet of tightly wound black fruit that unfurls with aeration to reveal blackberry, gravel and pencil box notes; classic, almost Left Bank in style, and delivered with real panache. The palate is exquisitely balanced with fine but grippy tannin, layers of black and red fruit tinged with vanilla and perfect acidity. The harmonious, sensual finish is very alluring. What a stunning 2015 this is going to be! Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting."
