Thursday, January 18, 2018 - Château Angélus tasting with Hubert de Boüard (Wine Watch, Fort Lauderdale, Florida): Still showing young. Dark opaque ruby color. Lots of curry and spice on the nose, along with plum, cherry, truffle, earth, and dark chocolate. Still a little tight and ungiving on the palate. Dense, full-bodied, and very concentrated. Still has oak to integrate. The tannins are firm. Medium acidity. I would probably hold this for a few more years, as it seems a bit closed at this stage.
