Deep, plush fruit pours from the 2006 Château Angélus – think ripe black cherry and dark berries layered with licorice, coffee bean, violet and a subtle earthy edge – all wrapped in a velvety, dense frame that still feels poised rather than heavy. The lower acidity and sweet, polished tannins give it a creamy, richly textured mid-palate, leading to a long, dark, graphite-tinged finish that shows why this vintage is so highly regarded in Saint-Émilion.

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.
