Angelus Réserve Château 2025 1er Grand Cru Classé A Saint-Emilion, 2012

Château Angélus is one of Saint-Émilion’s most celebrated names, and its 2012 release carries the polish and precision expected from a Premier Grand Cru Classé A estate. Sourced from the heart of Bordeaux, this wine is known for its depth, structure, and remarkable balance, reflecting both the prestige of the property and the pedigree of the vintage.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine typically shows a deep garnet colour with vibrant youthful intensity. The nose is expressive and layered, offering dark berry fruit, plum, graphite, cedar, floral notes, and subtle spice, with oak integrated to frame rather than dominate. On the palate, it is supple yet structured, combining ripe black fruits with fine tannins, freshness, and a long, elegant finish. The 2012 vintage offers impressive drinking already, but its balance and concentration suggest further cellar development, with the potential to age gracefully for many years.

Production
Château Angélus is based on prime limestone and clay soils on the right bank of Bordeaux, where the mix of terroir contributes to both power and finesse. The estate is known for meticulous vineyard work, careful parcel selection, and harvest decisions made to preserve purity and maturity. Vinification is carried out with precision, typically using traditional Bordeaux methods alongside modern temperature control and élevage in oak to enhance texture and complexity.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with classic dishes such as roast lamb, beef fillet, duck breast, mushroom-based dishes, and hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the aromatics and structure to open fully.

Producer
Château Angélus is a historic Saint-Émilion estate with a reputation for excellence that has grown over generations. Elevated to Premier Grand Cru Classé A status, it stands among the most prestigious producers in the appellation and has earned international acclaim for the consistency, elegance, and age-worthiness of its wines.
