DESCRIPTION

Château Angelus 2014 is a Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé "A" red Bordeaux from the right bank. In 2014, a cool, uneven summer was rescued by a warm, sunny September and October. That late "Indian summer" let the grapes ripen slowly, and Cabernet Franc excelled, which is why this vintage is an unusual half-and-half blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Expect blackberry, black cherry, cassis and violet, framed by cocoa, tobacco and graphite. The tannins are fine and firm, and the finish is long and fresh. Critics rate it up to 97 points (Wine Enthusiast). Drink now through the 2040s. Decant for 1 to 2 hours and serve with roast lamb or aged cheeses.

EYE

Deep ruby-red with elegant garnet reflections, bright and beautifully concentrated.

NOSE

Refined and expressive, with aromas of blackcurrant and ripe dark berries complemented by subtle toasted notes, fresh mint, fine spice, and delicate mineral nuances.

MOUTH

Elegant and beautifully balanced, with silky tannins and remarkable freshness. Layers of dark fruit, spice, and subtle toasted notes unfold across the palate, leading to a long, precise, and harmonious finish.

PAIRING

Ideal with roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, or veal with a rich jus. It also pairs beautifully with truffle dishes, wild mushrooms, and mature cheeses such as Comté or Saint-Nectaire.

Château Angélus

At the origin of Château Angélus is an exceptional vineyard at the gates of Saint-Émilion, on the famous south-facing “foot of the slope.” Since 1782, eight generations of the de Boüard de Laforest family have shaped the Estate through passion, determination, and a commitment to excellence. Today, Angélus encompasses 135 hectares, including 65 hectares in Saint-Émilion, with 30 hectares forming its historic heart. In 2012, Hubert de Boüard passed leadership to his daughter, Stéphanie de Boüard-Rivoal, the third woman in the family’s history to lead the Estate. Today, Angélus employs 170 people, produces eight cuvées, and owns hotels and a Michelin-starred restaurant.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux is the largest and possibly the most famous wine region in France marked by it's rich history beginning in Roman times. Back in 1885, several Châteaux were classified into grand crus with five quality levels which still exist today. As a port town, its unique geography is built around the Garonne, Dordogne and Gironde rivers which have created it's famous left bank (Medoc) and right banks (Pomerol and Saint-Émilion) and the Entre-Deux-Mers (between two "seas" or rivers) regions. 90% of Bordeaux wine is red with artful blending of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot and sometimes malbec. Wines showcase a full range of taste profiles from earthy with strong and dry tannins to softer and smoother with notes of plum, black fruits. There are the go to French wines with red meat dishes.
