  • James Suckling, April 2024, Score: 93-94

    A polished and in-check red with blackberry, dark-chocolate and walnut aromas and flavors. It has a medium body, creamy and round tannins and a savory finish. Well done for this estate. Better than 2022.

  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, April 2024, Score: 91-93

    Perfumed red and bright cherry fruits. On the palate a lovely combination of generosity and energy, with fresh, crunchy berry fruits. An excellent integration of tannins and depth of fruit, with an appealing long mouth-watering finish.

  • Matthew Jukes, April 2024, Score: 18+

    While many properties benefitted from generous yields in 2023, Angludet was, again, stuck at around 20 hl/ha, which is tight, to say the least. This is because they have adopted a new pruning regime that, on the one hand, restricts crops in the short term but endeavours to avoid mildew problems, which was a scourge in the 2023 vintage. They expect yields to increase over the coming years. Darker in colour than expected, this beautifully perfumed wine is quiet on the front half of the palate and then expands, gathering intensity and bravado, and the finish is glorious. With tension, drama, and sappy fruit notes, this is a superb wine with refined, emery board tannins on the finish. Returning to the glass a second and third time, the fruit seems even more expressive. 2023 is a fabulous vintage for Angludet and I have not seen this balance of dark fruit and riveting freshness before at this estate. While it ought to drink well from 2030, it is likely to have the energy to last for a further 15 years with ease. Interestingly, this is undoubtedly the finest of the ‘inexpensive Margaux’, so act fast if you are a fan. Chapeau.

Producer

Château d'Angludet

Ch d'Angludet is located in the southwest corner of Margaux close to Giscours and du Tertre and wasfor many years the home of the late Peter Sichel (Bordeaux merchant extraordinaire). He invested heavily in the vineyards and his painstaking work enabled d'Angludet to surpass its more famous neighbours on many occasions.

Region

Margaux

Plump, silky and seductive are the words often used to describe wines from Margaux. Because of their style, they tend to be user friendly and more approachable when young. This is in part due to its terroir which is comprised of the thinnest soil as well as the highest proportion of chunky gravel in all of the Médoc. It drains well but also is it more susceptible to vintage variation. Margaux wines tend to have the highest proportions of Merlot within the core of the Médoc further adding to their ample roundness and openness. Margaux is home to the largest number of classified growths including its namesake first growth, Château Margaux, as well as third growths, Palmer and d'Issan.
