Still young but quite promising for a modest vintage. If it does not seem to have the weight of other "big" Angelus from top vintages, it is quite refined, fresh and elegant. The oak reduction in the aging process is quite noticeable.
The wine is medium-bodied, quite long on the palate, with silky tanins. Nose of graphite, cedar, eulcalyptus, a bit of spice, minerality. Aromas of cherry, blueberry, blackberry, roasted with a very balanced texture. A very lovely wine, although too young (decanted 2 hours before tasting).
94-95

Beautiful cherry liqueur nose, the softness of the nose coming into stark contrast with the tannic palate. There's promise here, but many of the details are still shrouded in unintegrated oak, making it difficult to work out the details. Good fat for the vintage. 93+?

醒酒两个小时,深紫红色,闻香是雪松,青味,奶油饼干,还有一些碾碎的红果和一点桉树味,香气有些脂粉气,带着橡木桶带来的香草奶油。入口酸度中高,酒液咸,矿物感明显,收口微甜,单宁紧涩,细砂纸颗粒,口中是草莓糖和青味,口感辛辣,集中度高,余味奶香四溢。继续醒酒一个多小时,依然是脂粉香气和木质气息,入口水果糖那年轻而又活泼的香气明显,风格很愉悦,富于表现力,随着醒酒时间的增加,带出高级的木质香气,一支风格非常新世界,甜美感十足的酒,在强悍的帕图斯之花后登场也一点也不虚,可见它的酒体是很扎实的,年份应该很新,因为草莓糖的味道实在明显,现在只是它baby时候的样子,还需要更多时间的陈年变得复杂与深刻。

Domaine visit. Cool blue fruit, soft tannins, with some minty notes. Would need a bit more complexity for a higher score.
