Chateau Angelus 2018

The conditions in Saint-Émilion in 2018 were ideal: warm days, cool nights and enough rain to keep the vines healthy. For Château Angélus, located on the coveted south-facing slope, this meant perfect ripening of Merlot and Cabernet Franc and outstanding concentration. The farm's transition to organic farming, which began the same year, added further complexity to an already exceptional vintage. Critics, including Robert Parker and Jancis Robinson, took notice of the wines and praised their balance of power and elegance. 2018 was one of the standout years for Angélus under the guidance of terroir specialist and Stéphanie de Boüard-Rivoal. She believes that this vintage reflected both the evolution of the estate and the exceptional terroir
