Depth and opulence define Château Angélus 2009, a hedonistic Saint-Émilion loaded with blackcurrant, blackberry and black cherry fruit wrapped in dark chocolate, tobacco and earthy spice. The Cabernet Franc brings lift and cool herbal freshness to the plush, velvety palate, while the structure is powerful yet perfectly composed, giving the wine both immediate impact and remarkable refinement. This is a benchmark Angélus, still youthful and commanding, with years of evolution ahead.

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.
