Product Description
LP100 "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." LPB for TWI Mar 2023
“This is a vintage we like a lot,” said Hubert de Boüard. “It’s like a super 2001. There are wild flowers—like violets—in the wine. It is a very harmonious vintage.” Lisa Perrotti Brown for RobertParker.com Published May 20, 2021
