Wine Spectator May - 1996

Extraordinarily good; one of the stars of this weakling vintage. Black cherry and berry flavors, full-bodied, velvety and fresh. Long, long finish.

 Tasted at Farr Vintners’ vertical from ex-chateau magnum. For a 1992, this has a decent bouquet although it is simple, with touches of dull red fruits, peat, mint and a touch of star anise. It actually unfurls quite nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with firm, gritty tannins. There is a touch of dryness, savoury and autumnal with a slight attenuated finish that at least has more persistency than other 1992s that I have encountered. Tasted October 2011.

Château Château Angelus
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.
