Angélus, an emblem of excellence
Nestled less than a kilometer away from the iconic Saint-Emilion bell tower, Château Angélus occupies the 'foot of the hill,' basking in the sun-drenched south-facing slopes. Here, a significant portion of the vineyards is devoted to Cabernet Franc, which imparts its unique character to the estate's signature wines year after year.
Since 1782, Château Angélus has remained under the ownership and stewardship of the de Boüard family. In 2012, a significant milestone marked the transition of power as the 8th generation, represented by Stéphanie de Boüard-Rivoal, took over the management of the estate. Infused with passion, dynamism, and unwavering determination, Stéphanie is resolute in her commitment to uphold and enhance Angélus's esteemed reputation, perpetually driven by the same exacting standards in crafting wines of unparalleled excellence.
Hubert de Boüard de Laforest continues to work alongside his daughter. In 2024 he signs his fortieth vintage, a milestone that Stéphanie de Boüard-Rivoal wished to honour.

Tasting notes:
The deep, purple colour bears witness to the weather conditions in Bordeaux this vintage. The nose, initially bright and opulent, opens up to reveal the great ripeness of the Merlot grapes, before the delicacy and complexity of the Cabernet Franc comes through, with hints of spice, menthol and flowers. Violet and peony enrich the peppery nuances. The palate, juicy, full of flavour and energetic, instantly reveals dense, rich tannins with the texture of cashmere. The oak, a discreet support for the wine, rounds off the well-balanced structure, a guarantee of very good ageing potential.
