James Suckling: 99 Points

A great wine with superb concentration and richness. yet it's ever so agile and polished. Spices blueberries cinnamon and dried flowers. Full body and polished and full tannins. Great length. The refinement to the tannins is amazing. Compacted. Essence-like. Needs five or six years to open. Try in 2025.

Jeb Dunnuck: 97+ Points

A total blockbuster is the 2015 Angelus and it?s reminiscent of a slightly more elegant 2009. Made from 62% Merlot and 38% Cabernet Franc brought up in new barrels this rich opulent beauty boast killer notes of blackcurrants blackberry liqueur truffle chocolate and scorched earth. With full-bodied richness building ripe tannin and a stacked profile on the palate this hedonistic Bomb of a wine from Hubert de Boüard needs 4-5 years of cellaring and will keep for three decades or more.

The 2015 Angélus has a calm cool and collected bouquet of tightly wound black fruit that unfurls with aeration

Wine Advocate: 97 Points

"A blend of 62% Merlot and 38% Cabernet Franc the 2015 Angelus reveals a deep garnet-purple color and fragrant aromas of crushed red currants warm plums and pencil shavings with hints of incense sage violets and tobacco. Full-bodied very fine and intense yet exquisitely delicate with wonderful freshness it has ripe yet firm very finely grained tannins and an epically long perfumed finish. With bags of perfume and a captivating plushness this Angelus is a real head-turner!"

Wine Enthusiast: 97 Points

This wine is structured powerful and ripe but also elegant and stylish. Juicy black fruits combine with a dry structured core to give the wine both its richness and its future. Powered by its fruit and tannins it has good aging potential. Drink from 2027.

Wine Spectator: 96 Points

Dense dark and muscular featuring waves of warmed fig plum and black currant paste that roll in with warm ganache baker's chocolate and espresso accents. A huge swath of smoldering tobacco is brewing on the finish which has a brooding feel thanks to tannins that hit like a thunderclap at the end. If you've got time to wait... Best from 2028 through 2045. 8750 cases made. ?JM
