ANGELUS
This is one of the oldest yet most modern estates in Saint Emilion : Oldest because its origins go back hundreds of years and it has been in the De Bouard Laforest family since 1782 ; most modern because, as from the early 1980s, Hubert, the seventh generation De Bouard, embarked on a very ambitious vineyard and cellar renovation program that brought promotion first in 1996 to “Premier Grand Cru Classé” status, then culminating for the 2012 vintage, in promotion to “Premier Grand Cru Classé A” status, thus joining, together with Pavie, the ranks of Ausone and Cheval Blanc. Incidentally, this is the first vintage from the entirely rebuilt new cellar, an impressively solid thick-walled monastic building, topped by a belfry that chimes the Angélus three times a day.
