Description
When the Château Angélus philosophy of excellence is applied to a selection of different Saint-Emilion terroirs, No. 3 d'Angélus results.
Blended with 85 to 90% Merlot, this wine is made for instant enjoyment as soon as it is delivered from the winery. It is a refined version of its illustrious parents, which provides enjoyment while waiting the necessary years for the First Wine and Carillon d'Angélus to reach their full maturities.
The vines used to grow No. 3 d'Angélus are cultivated with the same care as those used to make its elders and their fruit is vinified with the same precision. The yields are larger and the wine is aged for a shorter period with no recourse to new wood: only one- or two-year-old barrels are used.
No. 3 d'Angélus is an easy-going, attractive wine, which gives its all when very young and can yet benefit from being kept for five to eight years.

Tasting
Eye : a ruby colour
Nose: notes of red fruits and more precisely of redcurrant.
Palate: the attack is supple, juicy, full of charm, then well-defined tannins, particularly those of the Cabernet Franc, maintain a structure in harmony with the volume provided by the Merlot. the Merlot. The finish is elegant with some spicy notes reminiscent of the Cabernet sauvignon
