Jean-Marc Quarin February - 2000
Jean-Marc Quarin
Dark red color. Medium intensity. Very evolved. Nose of medium intensity. Discreet. Pepper. Round and warm palate like a Saint-Emilion, tannic, rich and smoky, with a granular character in the tannin. It's long but not fine. For the record, this wine was aged in vats! Not bad, is it?

Very, very deep crimson with a brick rim. Minty, almost Australian! Sweet and gentle. Not for me, but admirable.

Information on the vintage 1982 red Bordeaux: 5/5 A milestone. It was the first really important and well-timed vin de garde since 1970. The big guns still have fire power and length of trajectory.

Château Angelus
Château Angelus

Château Angelus was promoted to Premier Grand Cru Classé A of Saint-Emilion in 2012 (previously it had been 1er Grand Cru Classé B since 1954). It shares the top of the Saint-Emilion Wine classification with Châteaux Ausone, Cheval Blanc and Pavie.

The Château Angelus vineyard is located on the hillside, a steep south-facing slope. The clay-limestone soil rests on a limestone base. The grape variety consists of approximately 51% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon. In certain years such as 2003, the proportion of Cabernet Franc even exceeds that of Merlot! The wine matures for 18 to 22 months in new barrels. Since 2018, Château Angelus has initiated its conversion to organic farming which should be completed in 2023.

The greatest vintages of the château are Angelus 1988, Angelus 1989, Angelus 1990, Angelus 1993, Angelus 1994, Angelus 2000 and Angelus 2001.
