Description

A bottle of 1996 Château Angelus, a Premier Grand Cru Classé wine from the Saint-Emilion appellation.Angélus produces around 80,000 bottles per vintage, from 23 hectares of vineyards.

'A massive, powerful Angelus, this wine exhibits a saturated black/ruby/purple color as well as an impressively endowed nose of dried herbs, roasted meats, new saddle leather, plum liqueur, and cassis. In the mouth, olive notes make an impression. This sweet, full-bodied, exceptionally concentrated wine is atypically backward and ferociously tannic. It was revealing more sweetness and forwardness immediately prior to bottling, but I would now recommend at least 3-4 years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025. 91+/100' Robert M.Parker Jnr. Tasted 2002
