Château l'Angélus--Vintage 1995
Saint-Emilion, grand cru classé
Offered in a carton
Tasting Note: Merlot 50 Cabernet Franc 47 Cabernet Sauvignon 3 Deep, velvety, intense, impressive ; attractive fruit ; very sweet, fleshy, lovely flavour and texture. A 'quick maturing wine'. Will certainly progress. Coincidentally the next two notes made within a fortnight of each other, the first at the MW tasting in November 1999 : very sweet, full, rich, with teeth-gripping tannins. A more critical note made at the Bordeaux Index Right Bank blind tasting. I preferred the nose (mocha, chocolatey, good depth) to the palate which though hefty, oppressive, full of fruit and extract, lacked charm. November 1999 **** M.B.
