Merchant's description
Among the most prestigious of the St-Émilion estates, this is a wonderfully mature vintage from Château Angelus. A stellar vintage made from a blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, the 1989 displays a concentrated, black fruited bouquet with mocha and cedar wood complexity. Smooth and rounded on the palate, with truffled, pepper character. Ready to be enjoyed.
