The 1983 vintage of Château Angélus Grand Vin is a blend of predominantly Merlot, along with Cabernet Franc and a smaller proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon. The 1983 growing season in Bordeaux was marked by a relatively cool summer, which led to slower ripening of the grapes. However, an Indian summer in September allowed for good ripening and harvest conditions. The 1983 Château Angélus Grand Vin is a mature wine that has likely reached its peak, and it is recommended to enjoy it sooner rather than later.

Chateau Angelus
A Right Bank Institution
This prestigious Saint-Émilion estate produces superb Right Bank Bordeaux and has been in the de Boüard family since 1782. Spanning 39ha, the Château Angélus estate is planted to 50% Merlot, 47% Cabernet Franc and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, and full conversion to completely organic farming began in 2018.
The estate's vines are positioned with perfect southern exposure on a sloping vineyard where the soils on lower potion are sandier and the upper portion richer in limestone and clay - perfect for both Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Along with the Grand Vin, a second wine, Le Carillon d’Angélus, as well as a third wine, No 3 d’ Angélus, are also made.
