Château d’Angludet 2021

Description

The 2021 Château d’Angludet contains less Merlot and more Petit Verdot due to the three�week frost. Daisy Sichel told me that it was aged in 50% amphora this year. It has a relatively light yet well-defined bouquet featuring strawberry and red cherry scents. The palate delivers fine tannins framing the red fruit, quite Burgundian in texture, and hints of graphite, leading to a nicely poised finish. Curiously, the Petit Verdot is quite disguised given the amount used. Drinking Window: 2024-2038. Score – 88-90. (Neal Martin, vinous.com)
