Description
Angélus 2020 is one of Saint-Émilion’s most distinguished wines, drawn from the prestigious Premier Grand Cru Classé A level. Elegant yet powerful, it reflects the precision, depth, and refinement that have made Angélus one of Bordeaux’s most admired names.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep, concentrated ruby-purple color. The nose is layered and expressive, with aromas of ripe black fruits, dark cherries, violets, cocoa, cedar, and subtle spice, often unfolding with impressive complexity.
On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and polished, combining rich fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a long, graceful finish. 2020 is a vintage known for concentration and freshness, giving the wine strong aging potential; it should continue to evolve beautifully over the next two decades or more.
Production
Angélus is sourced from exceptional Saint-Émilion terroir, where clay and limestone soils help produce wines of structure, mineral tension, and aromatic depth. Harvesting is carried out with great precision, often parcel by parcel, to ensure each plot is picked at optimal ripeness.
Vinification is focused on preserving purity and detail, with careful fermentation and aging in oak to build texture, complexity, and balance while allowing the character of the vintage and terroir to shine through.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with filet of beef, lamb, duck breast, roasted game, truffle dishes, and rich mushroom-based cuisine. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to open and show its full aromatic range.
Producer
Château Angélus is one of the most celebrated estates in Saint-Émilion and achieved Premier Grand Cru Classé A status, placing it among the appellation’s elite. The château has built its reputation on precision viticulture, consistency, and a style that combines power with elegance. Its name and legacy have made it a benchmark for modern Bordeaux excellence.
