Château l'Angélus--Vintage 2000
Saint-Emilion, grand cru classé
Tasting Note: The finest effort since the 1989 and 1990, this dense purple-coloured wine has an extravagantly ripe, concentrated style. The 2000 (in a new engraved bottle) offers up aromas of blackberry liqueur and vintage port. As the wine sits in the glass, graphite, wet stones, smoke, barbecue spices, and olives also make an appearance. It unfolds on the palate in layers, is full-bodied, big and rich yet incredibly poised, well-balanced, and pure. Quite backward, this is one of the greatest Angelus made to date. Yields were a modest 35 hectoliters per hectare. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2030. Bravo! Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 146 Apr 2003
