2022 Château Angélus 1e Grand Cru Classé Saint-Emilion Magnum

The 2022 Château Angélus 1er Grand Cru Classé Saint-Émilion in magnum format brings together one of Bordeaux’s most prestigious names with the added ageing advantages of a larger bottle. Known for its depth, precision, and signature Saint-Émilion elegance, Angélus has long stood at the forefront of the appellation’s finest estates. The magnum format is especially appealing for collectors, offering slow, graceful evolution over time.

Tasting Notes
Expect a deeply coloured wine with an intense, polished profile. Aromatically, Château Angélus often shows layers of black cherry, plum, violet, cocoa, cedar, and subtle spice, with the 2022 vintage likely carrying ripe fruit concentration balanced by freshness and mineral nuance. On the palate, the wine is typically full-bodied, velvety, and structured, combining power with finesse. Fine tannins and a long, layered finish suggest excellent ageing potential, particularly in magnum, where the wine can develop with exceptional complexity over many years.

Production
Produced in Saint-Émilion on prized limestone and clay-based terroirs, Château Angélus benefits from excellent drainage and a site well-suited to producing ripe, structured wines with freshness. While the exact blend is not provided, the estate is traditionally associated with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and a smaller proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon. Harvesting is carried out with great attention to plot selection and ripeness, followed by careful vinification to preserve purity, texture, and aromatic precision.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with premium dishes such as roast lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, truffle-based cuisine, and aged hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C and, if possible, decant for 1–2 hours when drinking young to allow the wine to fully open and show its layers.

Producer
Château Angélus is one of Saint-Émilion’s most celebrated estates and has played a major role in elevating the reputation of the appellation worldwide.

Its reputation rests on wines that combine richness, refinement, and remarkable ageing capacity.
