Tasting note
Château Angélus is located just half a mile from the Saint-Emilion bell tower, on the famous ôpied de côteö, facing due south. Its current consolidation and renovation is the culmination of a commitment made by seven generations of the Boöard de Laforest family. The property owes its name to a plot of vines from which the Angelus bell can be heard ringing at all three local churches: Mazerat Chapel, Saint-Martin de Mazerat church and Saint-Emilion church. Promoted to ôPremier Grand Cru Classéö status, the estate is recognised throughout the world as one of the finest in Saint-Emilion.This success is due to many years of devotion by the same family. Respect for traditional practices in both vineyards and cellar is combined with constant technical progress, so that each vintage is brought to the very summit of perfection.

Defining the Angélus nectar as a wine of a crystal-clear purity truly is an understatement. In the hands of the de Boüard 
Read morede Laforest family, this Premier Cru Classé 'B' has mastered the art of making itself famous. Its own name comes from the angelus the winegrowers used to hear simultaneously from three churches around and in the heart of the famous medieval town of Saint-Emilion. For connoisseurs from all over the world Angélus is counting among the most beautiful classified jewels of the Saint-Emilion Grand Cru appellation and as the true star of its classification, the 'Categorie B'. Angélus remains above all the finest expression of the winegrowing passion of Hubert de Boüard and Jean-Bernard Grenié as well as the skilful blend of a two-headed terroir (clayey-calcareous and clayey-sandy-calcareous) located on gentle slopes. Know-how, demanding expertise and endless passion in merlot and cabernet-franc do the rest. The Angélus and the Carillon de l'Angélus testify of a great workmanship.
