90 Points

Monday, November 22, 2021 - Angélus vertical (Fribourg): Angélus vertical of 20 vintages. Main observations were : 1/ Older vintages before the mid-2000s often suffered from drying tannin and showed a lot of extraction, 2/ Younger vintages quickly benefited from aeration hence decanting advised, 3/ the fruit profile became darker over time 4/ best vintage to drink today: 2004. All wines were directly poured with no prior decant and served in flights of 4.

Tasting note:
Not as expressive as 2002, but with a similar profile showing nicely extracted, ripe fruit. Palate was nice and juice, however plenty of tannin and acidity made it hard to enjoy.
