More Information
Chateau Angelus 2005
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classe (A)
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Truly great stuff, this wine performed at a three-digit level both in the horizontal tasting of 2005's in Baltimore, as well as in Montreal at this mini-vertical. This sensational, opaque, bluish/purple wine offers up notes of vanillin, spring flowers, blueberry and blackberry liqueur, plus a touch of liquorice. The wine hits the palate with a thunderous cascade of ripe, rich, concentrated fruit. It is full-bodied, multidimensional and layered. The tannins are beautifully integrated but still present, and the wood, acidity, alcohol, etc., are all beautifully assimilated in this magnificent, majestic vintage of Angelus. It can be drunk now, but it is still an adolescent and that suggests it has at least another 25-35 years of longevity. Robert parker, Wine Advocate (8⁄2015)
