Château Angélus 2007

Intense and enticing campfire smoke, this has beautiful rich fruits behind the grilled aromatics, and is open and just about ready to begin drinking. A lighter vintage in general across Bordeaux, but you see how Angléus overdelivers in these years, combining blackberry, redcurrant and blueberry fruits with orange peel and white truffle. Harvest September 25 to October 12th. Drinking window: 2021-2042. Score – 94. (Jane Anson, decanter.com, Dec. 14, 2021)
