A brilliantly judged second wine in a vintage where full ripeness could be achieved without any problem, and instead the key was to hold back. This gives real pleasure, with luscious, ripe brambly fruits and the signature polish. The Angélus team is currently building a new cellar specifically for Carillon d’Angélus, to be completed in 2019, which in theory should see even more focus and polish in this wine. 70% new oak.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Brambly and spicy mixed berry fruits as well as vanillin and lighter chocolate aromas lead into a palate with soft, supple fleshy appeal and an impressively fresh finish. Try from 2020.

Wine Enthusiast

This wine comes from part of the Angélus estate that is not classified, as well as wines that are not considered right for Château Angélus. The result is an accessible, ripe wine packed with red fruits, soft tannins and attractive, juicy acidity. The wine will be ready to drink from 2024.

Wine Advocate

Composed of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2015 Le Carillon d'Angelus sports a medium to deep garnet-purple color and a very spicy nose of cloves, cinnamon and fenugreek over core of warm red fruits and freshly crushed blackberries plus wafts of rose hips and fragrant earth. Medium to full-bodied, very fresh and delicate in the mouth, it offers soft tannins with a savory, slightly chewy finish.

The Wine Independent

Carillon d’Angelus 2015 is a blend of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and has a medium garnet color. It jumps from the glass with flamboyant scents of plum preserves, stewed black cherries, and cigar box, followed by hints of crushed rocks, stewed tea, and dusty soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is plush and mature with loads of mineral sparks and with the mouth-coating flavors, finishing on a lingering ferrous note.
