Chateau Angludet Margaux
Well-rounded Margaux with sweet, velvety tannins.
Home to the Sichel family since 1961, Château Angludet is one of the oldest properties in the Médoc, with a history which goes back to the twelfth century. It is named after Bertrand d’Angludet, a knight and lord of the noble residence which stood on this site in 1150.
Surrounded as it is by Grand Cru Classé properties, Château Angludet would almost certainly have been included in the famous 1855 Classification, had the property not been broken up as part of an inheritance settlement. In an act of faith (given the property’s state of decay) and belief in Angludet’s potential, the Sichel family bought the estate in 1961. Since then, the Sichels have worked tirelessly to restore and improve the vineyard and cellars, giving Angludet back the reputation its exceptional terroir deserves.
Produced from the oldest vines on the property, this Margaux has aromas of liquorice, cassis, violet, and cherry. Well-balanced on the palate with approachable tannins, hints of leather and good length on the finish. Perfectly within its drinking window, this is a wine to be enjoyed now.
