“Following the stunning
fragrance of acacia flowers, blueberries, espresso and graphite,
this prodigious wine hits the palate with amazing blue and black
fruits, sweet tannin, a full-bodied mouthfeel, incredible purity,
texture and length. Little is left to chance or imagination in this
compelling effort. It is a quintessential style of l’Angélus, only
more concentrated and dense than usual. The tannins are sweet and
well-integrated, so this is a wine that one can drink despite its
infancy at age 10, but it will keep for 40-50 years. Drink Date 2015
– 2065”

"Truly great stuff, this wine
performed at a three-digit level both in the horizontal tasting of
2005s in Baltimore, as well as in Montreal at this mini-vertical.
This sensational, opaque, bluish/purple wine offers up notes of
vanillin, spring flowers, blueberry and blackberry liqueur, plus a
touch of licorice. The wine hits the palate with a thunderous
cascade of ripe, rich, concentrated fruit. It is full-bodied,
multidimensional and layered. The tannins are beautifully integrated
but still present, and the wood, acidity, alcohol, etc., are all
beautifully assimilated in this magnificent, majestic vintage of
Angelus. It can be drunk now, but it is still an adolescent and that
suggests it has at least another 25-35 years of longevity."
