Château Angelus 2018 - 1st Great Cru Class A

                                                           2018 VINTAGE, THE PHOENIX

Magnificent fresh Merlots, a selection of very old Cabernet Franc on clay-limestone soils, a gentle extraction make this vintage a very great Château Angélus. A deep color attracts the eye. A perfect aromatic purity combined with notes of black fruits charm the nose. In the mouth, a slight sweetness gives way to an elegant tension with refined, velvety tannins. The alcohol (below 2010) and the wood are perfectly integrated.

The finish is persistent, carried by the elegance of the Cabernet Franc, by the purity of the fruit and punctuated by delicate spicy notes. It is to celebrate these moments when nature takes surprising paths, when linear time opens up to that, dear to the myth, of the eternal return, that all the bottles of this memorable vintage have been stamped with the figure of the legendary bird that signs eternity.
