Angélus, an emblem of excellence

Nestled less than a kilometer away from the iconic Saint-Emilion bell tower, Château Angélus occupies the 'foot of the hill,' basking in the sun-drenched south-facing slopes. Here, a significant portion of the vineyards is devoted to Cabernet Franc, which imparts its unique character to the estate's signature wines year after year.

Since 1782, Château Angélus has remained under the ownership and stewardship of the de Boüard family. In 2012, a significant milestone marked the transition of power as the 8th generation, represented by Stéphanie de Boüard-Rivoal, took over the management of the estate. Infused with passion, dynamism, and unwavering determination, Stéphanie is resolute in her commitment to uphold and enhance Angélus's esteemed reputation, perpetually driven by the same exacting standards in crafting wines of unparalleled excellence.

The 2025 vintage - L’IRRÉSISTIBLE

A mild winter was followed by a springtime that already bore the promise of a great vintage. Cool and sunny, punctuated by a few showers ensuring perfect nourishment for the vine. Then came summer, during which the vine, a plant with unsuspected resources, revealed yet new abilities. A few showers ensured the maintenance of proper water nutrition for the plant. Two heat waves slowed its metabolism, ensuring moderate alcohol levels and small berries with rich skins heralding a very great vintage.

This vintage, almost unique in Bordeaux for its climatic conditions and assertive style, is the perfect marriage of a gift of nature and the winegrower’s greatest hopes. The skins, with their infinitely deep purple colour, have resulted in a complex, aromatic and distinguished nose: a myriad of flowers, spices and crunchy black fruit, the hallmark of the very greatest Cabernet Franc wines. The smooth and opulent tannins with a cashmere texture, underpinned by the energy of the Merlot that is so typical of this vintage, offer a clean attack on the palate, velvety smoothness and a finish that seems to last forever

"The pureness of fruit is exceptional, with a long and linear palate of wonderfully curated raspberry, cherry and blueberry aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied. You almost don’t see the tannins, but you know they are there. So silky and endless. It has the core of fruit of the best of the vintage. 50% merlot and 50% cabernet franc."

"A blend of equal parts Cabernet Franc and Merlot, the 2025 Angélus is already beautifully harmonious, even at this early stage. Unfurling in the glass with notes of sweet dark berries and plums mingled with notions of violets, licorice and spices, it's medium- to full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with ripe tannins, lively acids and a long, perfumed finish. Much like its 2022 predecessor, the 2025 underlines that this estate's shift toward greater purity and subtler élevage choices can be sustained even in historically warm years. "
