Description

2010 Château Angélus

Sehr tiefes, dichtes Purpur-Lila. Intensives Amarenakirschenbouquet, viel Süsse von roten, reifen Früchten zeigend, momentan etwas zu Kopf steigend. Im Gaumen sich fortsetzende Süsse, sattes, nach gekochten Johannisbeeren schmeckendes Extrakt, intensive Adstringenz, momentan etwas mehr Muskeln als Fleisch zeigend, im Finale Honigspuren von sehr reifem Traubengut.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
This is another magnificent wine. How much fun will it be to have the 2000, 2005, 2009 and 2010 in future tastings to see which vintage comes out on top? They are all candidates that will flirt with perfection, depending on the state of their evolution. The 2010 has a similar color to the 2009, but is perhaps even more opaque, which seems almost impossible. Subtle barbecue smoke, graphite, blackberry liqueur, licorice and chocolate jump from the glass, and the wine hits the palate with a thunderous cascade of sweet, velvety, full-bodied, concentrated black fruits, nice definition from the tannins and decent acidity. The wine has a majestic, multilayered finish that goes on for a minute. This magnificent wine is still frightfully young and still somewhat unformed, but every bit as prodigious as its older sibling, the 2009. This will probably end up evolving on a slightly slower evolutionary track. However, it has 50 years of longevity in it.
