St Emilion - Chateau Angelus 2020

"The 2020 Angelus is a blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc, with the tiniest splash of Petit Verdot. It has a deep garnet‑purple color and needs considerable swirling and patience to release a whole array of red and black fruit scents ‑ kirsch, raspberry coulis, blackberry preserves and mulberries ‑ followed by hints of violets, molten licorice, tar, sassafras, and black truffles. The medium to full‑bodied palate is pure energy, featuring a firm backbone of exquisitely ripe, fine‑grained tannins and compelling tension to support the very tightly knit layers, finishing very long with a whole firework display of mineral and floral sparks." 100 pts, The Wine Independent
