Gorgeous perfumed nose of cassis, dark berries cedar, hints of savoury spice and smoked meats and dash of vanilla oak. Plump, creamy palate with ripe forgiving tannins and long, complex finish.

Chateau D’Angludet is a Margaux estate with 300 years of wine-making pedigree.  Owned by the famous Sichel family, Margaux property Chateau Angludet remains refreshingly uninfluenced (for now) by Bordeaux’s compulsion to invest heavily in shiny new buildings and art installations. Here the time and effort is spent in the vineyards and barrel room. 30 years ago, the estate was one of the first in the region to adopt biodynamic practices, and has seen quality accelerate in recent years. The vineyards are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon (58%), Merlot (35%), Cabernet Franc (5%) and Petit Verdot (2%). 2010 was a great year for Bordeaux as a whole and this is reflected in an exceptional release from Angludet which is starting to hit its peak. This stock is in impeccable condition, shipped directly from the cellars of the Chateau.

Perfect with roast lamb served pink with herbs, or a rare sirloin steak.
