Château Angélus is one of the most high-profile estates in Saint-Émilion and also one of the largest, covering 42 hectares of vineyards, planted to Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. 1993 was a tricky vintage for most Saint-Émilion producers but Château Angélus managed to release some impressive wines from that year. Rich and full-bodied, the wine offers tantalising notes of black fruits, dark chocolate, olives and spicy oak.
