When we tasted the 2023 at the estate last month, the Chateau explained their take on the vintage, choosing the word l'Affranchi to describe the year's independent nature that is reflected in this "terrific effort that foregrounds the vintage and the terroir at their best"
James Suckling calls Chateau Angelus 2023 “a thought-provoking young wine” and awards it 97-98 points.
This is perfect for those who love the new style of the Grand Vin – seriously powerful, yet beautifully elegant – always an exciting combination.
"Cocoa bean, liquorice, pomegranate, smoked earth, sage, anis, fennel, slate tannins, this combines nuanced and sinewy tannins with a generous supple expansion through the palate, building in power and impact. Beautifully fragrant, measured and skilful. 50% in foudres for Cabernet Franc, 50% new oak for the Merlot. Harvest September 14 through to October 1, Benjamin Laforest winemaker, Stephane de Boüard-Rivoal owner" 96 Points Jane Anson
"The transparency of fruit and the finesse is really something here. There’s depth and beauty to the pristine, fresh fruit. Full-bodied and muscular with wonderful tannins that provide tension and form. Subtle and weightless, this is a thought-provoking young wine. 60% merlot and 40% cabernet franc" 97 - 98 Points James Suckling
