Carillon d'Angelus, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, 2020, 12x75
“The 2020 Le Carillon d’Angélus has a compact, tight bouquet that needs more coaxing than I anticipated, almost reluctantly offering brambly black fruit, blueberry, incense and light potpourri scents. The palate is well balanced with a lovely bead of acidity that slices through the pure blackberry and raspberry fruit. I cannot recall a Carillon as precise as this, particularly on the finish. Just a superb Deuxième Vin.” NEAL MARTIN, Vinous
Drinking window: 2024 - 2038
