18 Rene Gabriel
94 Vinous
The 2011 Angélus has a lovely bouquet with ample red fruit, fireside hearth/ash and a touch of Earl Grey. Fine definition and lift here. The palate is very well balanced with supple tannins, fine bead of acidity, quite sensual for the growing season with a judicious plushness and a sense of breeding on the finish. Superb. Tasted blind at the annual 10-Year-On tasting.
94 Robert Parker
The 2011 Angelus is another winner from Hubert de Bouard. Supple and sexy with lots of blueberry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with licorice, barbecue smoke and camphor, this medium to full-bodied, supple-textured, sexy effort offers delicious drinking now, and promises to become even better over the next decade. It should keep for 15 or more years.
94 James Suckling
Intense nose of redcurrant and bramble jelly. Gains a lot of herbal and earthy complexity with some aeration. Very satisfying balance of full, powdery tannins and restrained richness. Quite sweet entry, but this turns decisively dry at the long, straight and elegant finish. Hint of warmth from alcohol, but this is part of the style. Drink or hold. Château Quintus vertical tasting. SP.

Château Angélus
A moins d’un kilomètre de l’inoubliable clocher de Saint-Emilion, le Château Angélus est érigé sur le coteau orienté au sud de ce domaine de 26 hectares qui s’inscrit dans la continuité d’une lignée de huit générations de la famille Boüard de Laforest. Depuis 10 ou 15 ans, la propriété figure invariablement dans le peloton de tête des grands Saint-Emilion. Déjà reconnu Grand Cru Classé dans le classement de 1954, Angélus a accédé au rang de Premier Grand Cru Classé en 1996. Ses vins se sont positionnés en pionniers, défendant un profil plus riche et plus concentré aux accents de cassis et de prunes. Ce qui ne les empêche pas d’être des vins bien équilibrés et boisés, à apprécier tous les jours.
