Angélus blends Merlot with a high share of Cabernet Franc. It is rich and polished, with dark fruit, spice and a fresh, structured finish, and ages for decades.

About Angelus

Château Angélus, owned by the de Boüard de Laforest family for generations, takes its name from the Angelus bell, heard from three churches around its vineyard; the bell appears on its label. It was promoted to Premier Grand Cru Classé “A” in 2012 and in 2022 chose to leave the Saint-Émilion classification.
