Tax included
A generous and elegant wine with upfront notions of baked plums and stewed black cherries, supported by soft tannins and a savory finish.
Winemaker and Vineyard: Carillon d'Angelus was born with the 1987 vintage. Over the years, it has acquired its own identity. A reflection of the high standards of the estate's team, it is made from a variable percentage of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon selected from different terroirs in Saint Emilion. The vinification and aging processes are precisely adapted to its style. It is appreciated for the purity of its fruit aromas, its velvety tannins, and its elegant finish.
Tasting: Composed of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Le Carillon d'Angélus rolls out of the glass with upfront notions of baked plums, stewed black cherries and raspberry pie, plus suggestions of potpourri, Chinese five spice, tilled soil and tobacco leaf. The medium to full-bodied palate is generous and spicy, supported by soft tannins and just enough freshness, finishing savory. (robertparker.com, 31.03.2021)
Service: Serve at room temperature (16-18°C) to accompany a Madeira tournedos.

Cherry red color, nose: basket of black berries, palate: melted tannins, harmonious, fruity, very accessible.
A medium-bodied masterpiece with a surprisingly sensual profile.
The nose reveals a rich and complex bouquet with notes of violet, ripe red fruits, leather, and nuances of truffle. On the palate, this wine combines roundness and power.
The robe is silky with a beautiful cherry red colour. The nose is very expressive and concentrated, slightly sweet and woody, with a mixture of red fruit aromas, morello cherry.
