Note di degustazione
The 2002 Angelus, which had a poor flowering for the Merlot and is therefore more Cabernet Franc dominated, has a quite lovely bouquet that is very Pomerol-like with crushed violets permeating the lifted black fruit. Plenty of freshness here. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins on the entry, fine structure, probably fully mature now with a fine bead of acidity. Not as complex as the 2001, yet this 2002 has commendable tension with a touch of allspice and sage towards the finish. Crack open a bottle now or over the next decade. Tasted at the château.

Notably dark crimson. Concentrated though not very subtle. Almost like a boiled blackcurrant sweet! Lots of concentration but not much nuance. Hard work. Lots of chew. (JR)
Magnum. 55% Cabernet Franc, 45% Merlot. Lovely intense healthy crimson. As though concentrated! Aromatic. Nicely balanced with resolved tannins. Perhaps not long on Angélus spiciness but well constructed and balanced. Acidity is perceptible but not intrusive. Just a tad hollow but some glamour and polish here. A very good 2002. Can’t see much point in ageing it longer. (JR)
