Immensely concentrated yet polished, 2005 Château Angélus surges with layers of blackcurrant and blueberry compote, dark plum and fig, laced with sweet spice, cigar leaf and a touch of cocoa. The palate is powerful and plush at once, a deep core of ripe fruit wrapped in satin tannins and vibrant acidity that carry into a long, resonant finish. This is a majestic, long-lived Angélus where richness, structure and precision all operate at full volume.

Château Angélus is the flagship grand vin of this historic Saint-Émilion estate, a Merlot–Cabernet Franc blend rooted in a warm, south-facing amphitheatre of clay-limestone soils that accentuates ripe fruit and early ripening. Defined by an unusually high proportion of Cabernet Franc for the Right Bank, it is known for combining lush, dense, creamy texture with floral lift, spice, freshness, and long ageing potential, expressing both power and refinement from its iconic hillside terroir.
