Parker about Château Angelus 1994
In the new classification of St.-Emilion, justice was certainly served with the elevation of Angelus to premier grand cru classe status. No Bordeaux estate has been making as concentrated and consistently high quality wines as has Angelus since 1988. Even in the rain-plagued vintage of 1992, Angelus produced a wine of uncommon power, ripeness, and intensity. This estate is in many ways symbolic of what heights Bordeaux can achieve when a property is managed by someone as passionate and driven as Hubert de Bouard. As I have been writing for the last decade, these are wines to buy at first release; they can only go up in price given their quality. Another inky, purple/black-colored wine, the 1994 offers up heavenly scents of smoked meats, barbeque spices, hickory wood, and plenty of cassis and kirsch liqueur. The fruit's phenomenal purity and denseness, as well as its overall balance is admirable in view of the massive, muscular personality of this huge, full-bodied wine oozing with extract. It is a tour de force in winemaking.

Château Angelus 1994
Château Angélus 1994 represents a fascinating vintage from the prestigious Saint-Émilion appellation in Bordeaux, France.
On the nose, the Château Angélus 1994 reveals a charming palette of aromas. Delicate notes of red fruits such as strawberries and raspberries mingle with subtle hints of dried herbs, tobacco leaves, and a hint of licorice. These aromas are accompanied by an elegant floral background that lends the bouquet a seductive depth.
On the palate, the wine presents itself with a refreshing vibrancy and a pleasant structure. The tannins are soft and supple, creating a gentle texture that envelops the palate. Fruit aromas of dark berries and cherries dominate, supported by a subtle acidity that gives the wine a beautiful balance. Nuances of spice and a hint of cedar wood provide additional complexity and depth.
The finish is elegant and harmonious, with a pleasant length and a hint of sweetness. Château Angélus 1994 may not have the powerful structure or impressive depth of some other vintages, but it impresses with its accessible drinkability and appealing finesse. A wine enjoyed at the right time can offer a wonderful experience and reflect the uniqueness of the 1994 Saint-Émilion vintage.
