Description
Château Angludet, Margaux, Bordeaux, France, 2019
Grapes: A blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot and 12% Petit Verdot, 15-50 year old vines, organic & biodynamic production, aged 12 months in a combination of French oak (30% new barrels) and, for the first time, in clay amphorae.
With 250 years of continuous grape production and, since 1961, home to the Sichel family, Angludet is a Cru Bourgeois chateau producing wines of Cru Classé quality at the heart of the prestigious appellation of Margaux. It is the responsibility of Benjamin Sichel, whose constant quest for quality is reflected in his policy of drastically limiting the yield of each vine plant and finding the natural balance of the entire vineyard, in order to get the best expression of this exceptional terroir in every glass. Angludet's wines enjoy a worldwide reputation for their elegance, aromatic finesse and their exceptional ageing potential.
Critics' Tasting Notes:
"Floral and fruity, the wine focuses you quickly on its bright, vibrant red fruits. The wine is medium-bodied, with a core of red currants, red plums, and strawberries. The fruit is clean and pure, but on the lighter, crisp side of the style range. Elegant and soft on the palate, the wine is refined in the finish."
89/100 points, Jeff Leve, THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER, March 2022
"The 2019 D'Angludet has turned out nicely in bottle, delivering aromas of earthy red and black fruits, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless palate with a sweet core of fruit, ripe tannins and lively acids. This elegantly fleshy wine is reminiscent of a modern-day version of the 1989."
91/100 points, William Kelly, WINE ADVOCATE, April 2022
Perfect to drink with all red meat dishes, such as beef wellington and venison.
