A brilliant performance by Hubert de Bouard, the 2001 Angelus (6,250 cases) is a more restrained and delineated version of the 2000. It has shed much of its tannin, and seems far more evolved and open-knit than I thought prior to bottling. Its deep purple color is followed by a rich nose of creosote, charcoal, blackberries, plums, cassis, and espresso roast. Elegant, medium-bodied, and rich, with a measured ripeness and moderate structure in the pure, nicely proportioned finish, it is less massive than either the 2000 or 2003, yet is also beautifully put together. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2017.

Intense aromas of earth, spice and new wood with fruit. Full-bodied and chewy with plenty of fruit and vanilla. Rich and exciting. Long finish. Angélus is a consistent winner and did well here. Best after 2006. 6,665 cases made.

Château Angélus
A meno di un chilometro dallo splendido campanile di Saint-Émilion, Château Angélus è situato sulla collina esposta a sud del vigneto di 26 ettari. La tenuta è la rappresentazione e il proseguimento di otto generazioni di membri della famiglia Boüard de Laforest. Negli utlimi 10-15 anni è stata considerata una delle tenute più rinomate di Saint-Émilion e, mentre nella Classificazione del 1955 figurava come Grand Cru Classé, nel 1996 questo riconoscimento è diventato ancor più prestigioso, diventando Premier Grand Cru Classé. Per quanto riguarda i vini, i produttori sono stati pionieri nella ricerca di maggiore ricchezza e concentrazione, con note di ribes nero e prugna. Si tratta comunque di vini equilibrati, passati in legno, da gustare ogni giorno.
