Château Angélus 2006 Red (Saint-Émilion)

Initially the wine is all firm tannins, but then there is a pure line of fresh black fruits that comes through, with cranberry tannins and blackberry jamminess. Above it all, is succulent richness and clear acidity. A beautifully shaped wine. — R.V. (3/1/2009)

Château Angélus 2005 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Émilion)

Online Exclusive

93-95 Barrel sample. A spicy, densely sweet wine, all ripe purple fruits bursting out of a straitjacket of tannins, with the wood flavors quite dominant at this stage. The wine is firm, but the fruit is so big that the dryness is lost. — R.V. (6/20/2006)

Château Angélus 2009 Red (Saint-Émilion)

Online Exclusive

Closed at this stage, this promises a huge, ripe future. Toast and spice notes are balanced around a black plum flavor. The dense, dark tannins create a brooding character, which is balanced by freshness on the finish. Give this wine at least 10 years. — R.V. (2/1/2013)

Online Exclusive

92-94. Barrel sample. Very dry, firm and hard, this is heavily dominated by new wood. It's only the underlying weight that suggests the black fruit potential. — R.V. (5/11/2012)
