Dark, polished fruit and lifted floral tones define Chateau Angelus 2018, a concentrated yet finely shaped Saint-Émilion where ripe blackberry, cassis and black cherry flow over hints of spice, cocoa and fresh earth. The texture is plush but controlled, with creamy, persistent tannins and a long, mouthwatering finish that shows impressive clarity and precision. This is a particularly refined, vibrant expression of Angelus, with the power to age and the finesse to fascinate even in its youth once the oak has further integrated.

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.
