Château Angélus is a famous wine estate located in the Saint-Emilion region, northeast of Bordeaux. The property is located in a coveted location to the west of the town of Saint-Emilion, on a gentle south-facing slope on the Saint-Emilion plateau. It produces a luxurious, long-lived Merlot-Cabernet Franc wine that is often highly praised by critics. The grand wine is aged in new oak barrels for approximately 18 months before bottling. It then ages in bottle for at least five years before being released, but can be aged for longer as Angélus' concentration, weight and structure often allow the wine to evolve over decades.
===============
Chateau Angelus 2020 has turned out superbly and underlines this estate's continuing shift to a more elegant, integrated style that offers a purer expression of its terroir. A blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc, it unwinds in the glass with aromas of cherries, wild berries, rose petals, mint and subtle hints of licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, beautifully layered and vibrant palate that's deep, precise and penetrating, concluding with a mouthwateringly chalky finish.
