Angelus

Château Angelus is a Saint-Émilion Premier Cru Classé A. The estate has one of the longest histories in Saint-Émilion, dating back to 1782. Saint-Émilion itself was previously called 'Ascumbas'. It was renamed after the monk called Émilion, a travelling confessor, who settled in a hermitage carved into the rock there in the 8th century. The monks who followed him started up the commercial wine production in the area. Angelus is owned by the historic de Bouard family. It has a fanatical following in China, in part due to the label image of a golden bell. In China the wine is referred to as 'Kin Chung' (The Golden Bell). The wine has also been featured in James Bond films.

Beautiful, sweet plum, blackberry and blueberry fruit soar from the glass of this opaque, purple wine that still hasn’t lost much in color. Deep, opulent, voluptuously textured, full-bodied and multidimensional, this is a stunner and just now approaching its plateau of full maturity, where it should stay for at least another 20 years.

Expressive, floral aromas of black raspberry, black cherry, toffee, licorice and chocolate; suggests an almost roasted ripeness. Chocolatey and very dense in the mouth; rather tightly wrapped today but still much broader than the '97. Finishes very long, with substantial tongue-coating tannins.

It has an incredible array of smoked meats, incense, cigar box and dusty earth notions over a core of baked cherries, dried mulberries, preserved plums and dried roses with wafts of lavender, menthol and new leather. The palate is medium to full-bodied, rich, intense and packed with black fruit preserves accented by complex savory and earth-inspired flavors, supported by wonderful freshness, textured by plush tannins and finishing with fantastic tension.

2000	Angelus 2000 (6x150cl) Wine Advocate (99) Approaching perfection, this wine is inky, bluish/purple-colored to the rim, offering up notes of incense, blueberry and blackberry liqueur, licorice, graphite and spring flowers. A touch of roasted espresso bean is also present. The wine has great concentration, a magnificent, full-bodied mouthfeel, stunning purity, and well-integrated acidity, tannin, alcohol and wood. This beauty seems to be in mid-adolescence with at least 25-30 years of life ahead. Delivery to Storage from 24 Oct 2021	Bordeaux	6x150cl	1	99 (WA) Read Review/Description	Inc. VAT: £7,700.14
Angelus 2002 (6x75cl) Inc. VAT: £1,888.07
2002	Angelus 2002 (6x75cl) Stephen Tanzer - Vinous (93) Bright ruby. Primary, slightly inky aromas of black fruits, bitter chocolate, licorice and violet, with a hint of fresh herbs. Juicy and deep, with slightly inky, muscular flavors of cassis and blackberry; tightly wound and very fresh today owing to fresh, harmonious acidity. With its atypically full cabernet franc, this has superb density for the year. Finishes with huge but suave tannins and terrific chocolatey persistence. A strong early showing for this wine.

2004	Angelus 2004 (12x75cl) Wine Advocate (95) This 7,500-case blend of 62% Merlot and 38% Cabernet Franc is one of the strongest wines of the vintage. A deep blue/purple hue is accompanied by classic aromas of smoky blueberries and blackberries as well as incense and floral notes in the background. A beautiful texture, opulence, flamboyance, and purity characterize this stunningly deep, full-bodied effort, another great success from proprietor Hubert de Bouard. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2022.

Angelus 2005 (12x75cl) Inc. VAT: £5,912.14
2005	Angelus 2005 (12x75cl) Jeb Dunnuck (100) The 2005 Angelus is as good as it gets, and despite having 2-3 decades of prime drinking ahead of it, is as profound a drinking experience as money can buy even today. Offering off the hook notes of blackcurrants, smoked herbs, blackberries, toasted spice, espresso and scorched earth, this beauty is unctuous and opulent on the palate, with incredible depth, yet never seems heavy, cumbersome or over the top. It has more depth and concentration than the 1990 (and I suspect any vintage in the 1990s or 2000s) and will keep for another 30 years or more.

2006	Angelus 2006 (12x75cl) Wine Advocate (94) Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London. The 2006 Château Angelus, a blend of 47% Cabernet Franc, 50% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, has a very perfumed bouquet with scents of blueberry, cassis, crushed violets and just a touch of mushroom. This is very generous. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth, slightly toasty entry. The acidity is quite low compared to other 2006 Saint Emilions, but there is harmony here and the tannins seem very fine. There is real density on the finish, although I was just seeking a little more delineation to come through. Give this another two or three years in bottle. Tasted January 2016.

The natural sweetness of the damson fruit is tempered by cherry pits, tar, dark chocolate, charcoal, liquorice and spice, showing incredible persistency. The tannins are layered and hefty, yet cashmere-like and balanced by the acidity, helped again by that shot across the bows that Cabernet Franc gives. This is the kind of year where you understand exactly why Angélus has seen the success that it has. Delivery to Storage from 24 Oct 2021	Bordeaux	12x75cl	10	99 (DC) Read Review/Description	Inc.

Supple and sexy with lots of blueberry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with licorice, barbecue smoke and camphor, this medium to full-bodied, supple-textured, sexy effort offers delicious drinking now, and promises to become even better over the next decade. It should keep for 15 or more years. Delivery to Storage from 24 Oct 2021	Bordeaux	6x75cl	4	94 (WA) Read Review/Description	Inc. VAT: £1,745.27

1998	Angelus 1998 (12x75cl) Wine Advocate (98) The 1998 Angélus, a blend of 40% Cabernet Franc and 60% Merlot, is deep garnet colored with a touch of brick. The nose is completely...WOW! It has an incredible array of smoked meats, incense, cigar box and dusty earth notions over a core of baked cherries, dried mulberries, preserved plums and dried roses with wafts of lavender, menthol and new leather. The palate is medium to full-bodied, rich, intense and packed with black fruit preserves accented by complex savory and earth-inspired flavors, supported by wonderful freshness, textured by plush tannins and finishing with fantastic tension. This still has loads of life—25+ more years! Delivery to Storage from 24 Oct 2021	Bordeaux	12x75cl	3	98 (WA) Read Review/Description	In Bond: £4,264.00

Angelus 2000 (6x150cl) In Bond: £6,390.00
2000	Angelus 2000 (6x150cl) Wine Advocate (99) Approaching perfection, this wine is inky, bluish/purple-colored to the rim, offering up notes of incense, blueberry and blackberry liqueur, licorice, graphite and spring flowers. A touch of roasted espresso bean is also present. The wine has great concentration, a magnificent, full-bodied mouthfeel, stunning purity, and well-integrated acidity, tannin, alcohol and wood. This beauty seems to be in mid-adolescence with at least 25-30 years of life ahead. Delivery to Storage from 24 Oct 2021	Bordeaux	6x150cl	1	99 (WA) Read Review/Description	In Bond: £6,390.00
Angelus 2002 (6x75cl) In Bond: £1,560.00
2002	Angelus 2002 (6x75cl) Stephen Tanzer - Vinous (93) Bright ruby. Primary, slightly inky aromas of black fruits, bitter chocolate, licorice and violet, with a hint of fresh herbs. Juicy and deep, with slightly inky, muscular flavors of cassis and blackberry; tightly wound and very fresh today owing to fresh, harmonious acidity. With its atypically full cabernet franc, this has superb density for the year. Finishes with huge but suave tannins and terrific chocolatey persistence. A strong early showing for this wine.

Angelus 2004 (12x75cl) In Bond: £3,086.00
2004	Angelus 2004 (12x75cl) Wine Advocate (95) This 7,500-case blend of 62% Merlot and 38% Cabernet Franc is one of the strongest wines of the vintage. A deep blue/purple hue is accompanied by classic aromas of smoky blueberries and blackberries as well as incense and floral notes in the background. A beautiful texture, opulence, flamboyance, and purity characterize this stunningly deep, full-bodied effort, another great success from proprietor Hubert de Bouard. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2022.

Angelus 2005 (12x75cl) In Bond: £4,900.00
2005	Angelus 2005 (12x75cl) Jeb Dunnuck (100) The 2005 Angelus is as good as it gets, and despite having 2-3 decades of prime drinking ahead of it, is as profound a drinking experience as money can buy even today. Offering off the hook notes of blackcurrants, smoked herbs, blackberries, toasted spice, espresso and scorched earth, this beauty is unctuous and opulent on the palate, with incredible depth, yet never seems heavy, cumbersome or over the top. It has more depth and concentration than the 1990 (and I suspect any vintage in the 1990s or 2000s) and will keep for another 30 years or more.

Angelus 2006 (12x75cl) In Bond: £3,265.00
2006	Angelus 2006 (12x75cl) Wine Advocate (94) Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London. The 2006 Château Angelus, a blend of 47% Cabernet Franc, 50% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, has a very perfumed bouquet with scents of blueberry, cassis, crushed violets and just a touch of mushroom. This is very generous. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth, slightly toasty entry. The acidity is quite low compared to other 2006 Saint Emilions, but there is harmony here and the tannins seem very fine. There is real density on the finish, although I was just seeking a little more delineation to come through. Give this another two or three years in bottle. Tasted January 2016.

Full, rich, spicy and decadent in the mouth, it has a plush, velvety texture and well-knit freshness, finishing very long with tons of spicy layers.

Angelus 2010 (12x75cl) In Bond: £3,746.00
2010	Angelus 2010 (12x75cl) Decanter (99) This is so opulent it almost stops you in your tracks. 2010 is a big vintage anyway, and when layered up with the seductive power of prime Angélus, it's a package that absolutely delivers. The natural sweetness of the damson fruit is tempered by cherry pits, tar, dark chocolate, charcoal, liquorice and spice, showing incredible persistency. The tannins are layered and hefty, yet cashmere-like and balanced by the acidity, helped again by that shot across the bows that Cabernet Franc gives. This is the kind of year where you understand exactly why Angélus has seen the success that it has.

2011	Angelus 2011 (6x75cl) Wine Advocate (94) The 2011 Angelus is another winner from Hubert de Bouard. Supple and sexy with lots of blueberry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with licorice, barbecue smoke and camphor, this medium to full-bodied, supple-textured, sexy effort offers delicious drinking now, and promises to become even better over the next decade. It should keep for 15 or more years. Delivery to Storage from 24 Oct 2021	Bordeaux	6x75cl	4	94 (WA) Read Review/Description	In Bond: £1,441.00
