2021 PRIMEURS
L'INATTENDU
"After a mild, rainy winter and then spring frosts (which were mostly kept at bay), a very long, damp, rainy period put our teams under stress.
Making good use of biodiversity
A vigneron’s job is to farm the land in such a way that the highest quality of grapes can be produced.
Foudres make a striking debut at Angelus
The ageing process is one of the key stages in winemaking. It begins just after the fermentation and helps refine the wine’s tannins and enables the aromas to become more distinct and stable. This is a crucial process for great wines, such as Angelus, which have the capacity to age in bottle over decades.
SAINT-EMILION 2022 CLASSIFICATION
Château Angelus withdraws its candidacy from the next Saint-Emilion classification.
The Saint-Emilion classification has long been a wonderful collective motivational tool, which has enabled the appellation to be promoted in an efficient way.
