Reviews of 1995 Angelus Bordeaux Blend
95 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
February 1998
A superb effort in this vintage, Angelus's opaque purple-colored 1995 is a massive, powerful, rich offering with plenty of ripe, sweet tannin. The wine's aromatics include scents of Provencal olives, jammy black cherries, blackberries, truffles, and toast. A very full-bodied wine, it is layered, thick, and pure. This is the most concentrated of the 1995 St.-Emilion premier grand crus. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2025.

...Sweet, superripe aromas of raspberry, plum, black cherry, tobacco, toffee and game. Like liquid velvet in the mouth: sweet, voluptuous, seamless. Palate-staining flavors of black cherry, chocolate and smoky oak. Finishes with chewy, toothfurring tannins and great persistence...

A stunning red. Dark and inky, with masses of coffee, blackberry, cherry and wild flower aromas. Full-bodied and tannic, with loads of fruit and tons of oak on the long, long finish. Perhaps a bit too much new wood on the finish? Best after 2003. (JS)

About 1995 Angelus Bordeaux Blend
About the Winery Angelus
A scant kilometre
from the famous bell-tower at Saint Emilion, on its renowned
south facing "pied de cote" (foot of the hill)
site, Chateau Angelus is the story of a passionate
involvement of the last four generations of the Benard
de Laforest family.
The estate's name derives from a particularly ancient plot
of vineyard, from which the men tending the vines were able
to hear the angelus ringing out from all three of the village
churches, chapelle de Mazerat the church of Saint Martin de
Mazerat and the church of Saint Emilion.
