Jamessuckling.com 87 / 100 par James Suckling le 15/02/2016 A little lean with dried berry, spice and cedar character. Medium body, firm tannins and a crisp finish. A little short. Drink now.
Wine Advocate 79-82 / 100 par Robert Parker le 29/08/2014 This estate’s second wine, the 2013 Carillon Angelus, is a blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc. It is light, fluid, diluted and suspect in terms of any real aging potential beyond 4-5 years.
Jancis Robinson 16 / 20 par Richard Hemmings le 22/04/2014 75% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc. Violet perfume and an understated but pleasant plummy fruit. Finishes slightly dilute.
Vinous 84-86 / 100 par Antonio Galloni le 18/04/2014 Dark red cherry, plum, spice and menthol notes lift from the glass in the 2013 Le Carillon d'Angélus. The wine's feminine, ethereal personality suggests it is best enjoyed sooner rather than later.
Decanter.com 15,5 / 20 par Steven Spurrier le 15/04/2014 Nose open and forward. Very much a subordinate wine this year. Light, fruity and early drinking
My Bettane + Desseauve 16,5 / 20 le 15/04/2014 Très ample, texture suave, parfait équilibre, tanin délicat, parfum subtil. Remarquablement réussi.
Wine Advocate 86-88 / 100 par Neal Martin le 15/04/2014 The Carillon d'Angelus has a light, crushed strawberry and dried herb-scented bouquet that needs to muster more vigour. The palate is medium-bodied with quite bold tannins on the entry. Moderate depth, the acidity is well judged although the finish is rather flat footed at the moment.
Jamessuckling.com 86-87 / 100 par James Suckling le 08/04/2014 A fresh, lively red with plum, berry and cherry character. Medium body, medium-round tannins and a clean finish.
Wine Enthusiast 90-92 / 100 par Roger Voss le 31/03/2014 The second wine of Château Angélus, this is dominated by crisp, tight Merlot. Black currant flavors are cut with almost shocking acidity. A light wine that is not meant for long-term aging.
