Expert Reviews
This is very reserved and tight with super fine tannins that are forceful and beautiful. Full-bodied, layered and beautiful. The tannins are forceful yet polished and thoughtful. Second wine of Château Angélus. Try after 2023.
Still young, far more so than the 2015, and you really see Carillon d'Angélus taking a step forward in precision - something that has been maintained since this vintage. A touch of reduction on the first nose, quickly clears to show plump black cherry fruits, liquorice and spices. They were looking to pick slightly earlier at this point to increase freshness and ageing potential, and you can see the results. A brilliant quality Carillon with huge sculpting and potential. 70% new oak.
The 2016 Le Carillon d'Angélus is blended of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc, aged 16 months in 50% new French oak. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it strides confidently out of the glass with pure, polished black cherries, fresh blackberries and black raspberry scents with nuances of unsmoked cigars, hoisin, black truffles and wet stones plus a waft of pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has great elegance and sophistication, with the lively red and black fruit flavors adeptly structured with soft, fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering earthy note.
