CHATEAU ANGELUS, 2006
SAINT-EMILION GRAND CRU
" Il s'agit d'un autre vin discret du millésime de Hubert de Boüard. Le 2006 me rappelle un peu le 2001, peut-être pas tout à fait aussi opulent à ce stade, mais sous-estimé comme millésime pour cette propriété. D'un pourpre dense, avec des notes sucrées de mûre, myrtille et framboise noire, de la réglisse, du chocolat et une touche de fumée de barbecue, une pointe de graphite se fait également sentir dans ce vin ample et opulent qui semble évoluer de manière similaire au 2001. " - Robert Parker

History and anecdotes
For eight generations, the Château has been owned by the de Boüard de Laforest family. The Angelus vineyard is located in the heart of a natural amphitheater, dominated by the three churches of Saint-Emilion. In this privileged site, sounds are amplified, and in the past, one could hear the bells ringing the Angelus in the morning, at noon, and in the evening. In 2012, the Château was classified as a Premier Grand Cru Classé A in the Saint-Emilion Classification. Today, Stéphanie de Boüard-Rivoal runs the estate.
