Château Angélus 1985, Premier Grand Cru Classé A of Saint-Émilion, born on a clay-limestone terroir. A blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, it reveals aromas of dark fruits, spices and vanilla. On the palate, silky and mineral, it seduces with its freshness. Perfect with braised lamb.
Eight generations of family passion rooted in the clay-limestone slopes of Saint-Émilion.
- Terroir: Clay-limestone soils of the Right Bank, the cradle of great Bordeaux wines, shaping cuvées of mineral elegance and rare depth.
- Vinification: Traditional methods, hand harvesting and precise blending to reveal the purity of the fruit and the complexity of the emblematic grape varieties.
Tasting Notes for Château Angélus 1985
Appearance: Garnet red robe with tawny highlights, of a silky density and crystalline brilliance.
Nose: Aromas of wild blackberry and candied blackcurrant intertwine with notes of liquorice, cedar and a saline hint reminiscent of the damp undergrowth of Saint-Émilion.
Palate: Velvety texture, well-integrated yet still present tannins, a lively acidity and a chalky minerality that carries a long, spiced finish, marked by nuances of tobacco and vanilla.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to fully release its complexity.
Vintage 1985
A sunny and balanced vintage, where the ripeness of the fruit meets a refined tannic structure, typical of the great years of the Right Bank.
- Aging Potential: Drink now or keep until 2030 in a cellar at constant temperature (12–14°C) and controlled humidity.
