Parker about Château Angelus 2014
Medium to deep garnet in color, the 2014 Angélus needs a fair bit of coaxing to begin to reveal very pretty aromas of lilacs, kirsch, redcurrant jelly and Black Forest cake plus nuances of graphite and menthol. The palate is delicately intense with soft spoken floral and earth notes complimenting the black fruits, supported by ripe, rounded tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long with compelling restraint. Sporting a good amount of tertiary nuances, it can be enjoyed right now, but make sure to decant it a good 1.5 to two hours before drinking.

Suckling over Château Angelus 2014
Ripe damson-plum, candied-orange and spice aromas pour from the glass of this ripe and generous St.-Emilion. Impressive tannin structure behind all the richness, the bitter-chocolate and expresso notes at the warm and long finish underlining the ripe fruit very neatly. Still so much life and so many years ahead of it. Drink or hold. Château Quintus vertical tasting. SP.

Château Angelus 2014

The 2014 vintage from Château Angélus presents itself as an elegant and expressive wine, subtly reflecting the characteristics of its terroir and the vintage. This vintage was challenging due to the changeable weather during the growing season.
In the glass, the wine displays a beautiful ruby red color with delicate violet reflections. The nose reveals aromas of red fruits such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by hints of spices, cedarwood, and a subtle mineral note.
On the palate, the wine presents itself with lively acidity and silky tannins, providing beautiful structure and balance. The fruitiness is well-developed, and the wine displays a certain elegance and finesse despite the challenges of the vintage.
The finish is long and harmonious, and while the 2014 vintage of Château Angélus may not have the long-term cellaring potential of some other vintages, it still offers a great drinking experience and is an example of the estate's ability to produce high-quality wines even in difficult years.
