Château Angelus: The Pinnacle of St Emilion Elegance
One of Bordeaux’s most famous estates, Chateau Angelus is nestled in the heart of the Saint-Émilion appellation. With a legacy dating back to 1782, Angélus has consistently set the standard for exceptional Bordeaux wines. The estate combines tradition and innovation to become one of Bordeaux’s most consistent and recognisable names.
As well as the Grand Vin, Chateau Angelus produces an excellent second wine, Carillon d’Angelus, which comes from specific parcels of vines.
Chateau Angelus: A Family Jewel Across the Generations
Angélus is a family-owned estate with a rich heritage and a relentless pursuit of excellence in winemaking. The estate spans 42 hectares planted predominantly with Merlot (around 50%) and Cabernet Franc (around 47%) vines. The unique terroir includes vines planted on the famous St. Emilion limestone and clay soils that impart distinctive characteristics to the wines. The Boüard de Laforest has a history in Bordeaux that dates back to 1544 but it was their arrival in St. Emilion in 1910 and subsequent purchase of a parcel of vines known as the Clos L’Angelus in 1922 that signalled the beginning of the modern era of the Angélus estate.
The wines from Chateau Angélus usually require some patience before showing their at their best. Once mature Chateau Angelus is a wine that is suave and full of panache yet also pure, elegant and velvety in texture. These are wines at the very pinnacle of the St Emilion style.
Underperformance Turns into Greatness
After its heyday in the 1950s Angélus began to be considered as a perennial underperformer. This was up until 1989 when Hubert de Bouard joined the family estate. Having studied under the great Emile Peynaud at Bordeaux University, Hubert modernised winemaking practices and lowered yields. This ushered in a new era in which Angélus has become of the most revered names in all of Bordeaux.

Tasting Notes
Antonio Galloni 95-97+
The 2025 Angelus (50% Cabernet Franc, 50% Merlot) is a superb contemporary Grand Vin. Aromatic, vibrant and wonderfully fresh, the 2025 dazzles from start to finish. Blood orange, mint, white pepper, rose petal and chalk weave through layers of vibrant red-toned fruit. Here, too, the Grand Vin impresses with its noble purity and understated grace. Elevage is 50% foudre/50% new oak for the Cabernet Franc, and 60% new oak/40% once-filled barrels for the Merlot. I can’t wait to see how this ages.
Anticipated maturity: 2035-2065
Neal Martin 95-97
The 2025 Angelus was picked from September 10 to 20 and Stephanie de Bouard told me that they halved the pumpovers. The Cabernet Franc is aged half in foudres and half in new barrel, and the Merlot is half in new barrel and half in one-year-old barrels that were used for the 2023 vintage. The alcohol is 14.05% with a pH of 3.6, many grapes showing a gram or more malic acid. This note comes from a narrower Riedel glass that showed the wine in a better and more accurate light. The bouquet opens with blackberry, raspberry, light cassis scents and a touch of iodine, well defined, the oak seated politely in the background. The palate is silky smooth with filigree tannins, very well judged acidity plus palpable underlying sapid notes that come through towards the finish. Fine tension, very focused with a very persistent aftertaste, this is an Angelus with great potential and it should give 25 to 30 years’ drinking pleasure.
Anticipated maturity: 2033-2060

50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Franc. 30 hl/ha. Cask sample.Deep purple colour. Nose bright, lifted and fragrant. Concentrated but finely honed, the tannins powerful but refined. Good tension. Structured with plenty of vigour but all well contained. (JL)
