Château Angelus is one of the largest and most prestigious St-Emilion estates and was promoted to 1er Grand Cru Classé ‘A’ status in the 2012 St-Emilion reclassification. Angelus is always full-bodied, concentrated and rich with a plush, silky texture and the fully mature 1994 is delicious with notes of dried cherry, flowers, tobacco, earth and truffle.

Vinous
The 1994 Angélus is everything you could want from a mature Saint-Émilion without pretentiousness. Gorgeous scents of red fruit, loam, chestnut and smoke blossom on the nose, hinting at possibly 1995 rather than 1994. Merlot is in the driving seat. The palate has wonderful balance and a keen line of acidity, fully mature yet certainly showing no signs of reaching the end of its drinking window. Mellow with pliant tannins softened by age, the Angélus boasts surprising depth and flesh, with hints of dried blood and game towards the finish. If you see a bottle, do yourself a favor.Neal Martin1st February 2025

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.
