In 2014, Château Angélus delivers a poised, luxurious Saint-Émilion, packed with pure black cherry and redcurrant fruit, woven with floral, cocoa and graphite nuances. The palate is concentrated yet beautifully lifted by fresh acidity, the tannins polished and firm, leading to a long, precise finish that is just beginning to reveal its complexity and will grow more layered with further cellaring.

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.
