Deep ruby red in appearance. Rich and dark nose with layers of black plums, cassis, black pepper, violet undertone and a bit of minerality. Heavy tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Layered palate with graphite, black cassis, violets and baking spices. Long, lingering and dry finish. Drink till 2045.

Good, but not as great as some others-wanted more silk on the palate

My first wine of an incredible tasting! A beautiful nose of plump roasted red and black plums, dark chocolate, black pepper, spice and touch of oak. The palate opens up to a velvet texture that is tight but has a core of black fruits and wet stone surrounded by a savory component that holds on to a long finish. #mwtasting

This wine needed a little more time to breathe but still rocked our evening. Clearly has another 20 + years.

Light and smooth up front and then hit with tannins 2/3rds of the way through it. Needs more time to mellow, but great structure

This is a 9.9 wine that’s 10 years too young. Incredible just huge and needs time!

First bottle of the top wine of Angelus. Gave it a solid 7 hour decant. Out of control delicious. Amazing franc-dominated nose and an endless finish. Best wine I’ve ever had.
