Carillon d’Angelus 2018

Angelus

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 95.0

First released in the 1987 vintage, Carillon d’Angélus has since acquired its own distinct identity, separate from its bigger, brasher older sibling. Now with its own winery, Carillon is spread over the cooler plots of the Angélus estate, enabling this Merlot dominant blend to retain its vigour. Representing 20% of the Château’s production, its second wine still receives the same top-class treatment as its first. In turn, this is a highly respected wine that is appreciated for its juicy black fruit aromas, velvety tannins and timeless elegance.

Tasted blind. Mid crimson. Some freshness on the nose. Well-mannered and 21st-century but not compelling. Some leathery tannin on the end. Needs time! But quite promising.

Deepest crimson. Dark, ripe and finely perfumed cassis and just a touch of oak sweetness on the nose. Lively fruit supported by light, chalky tannins. Definitely slimmer on the palate than many wines in this vintage but thus with greater elegance and refreshment. Chewy tannins but not in the least tough. Needs time but I like the restraint here.
