  "Extrem dunkles Purpur mit schwarzen und violetten Reflexen. Würziges Bouquet, dunkle Rosen, schwarze Edelhölzer, kalter Teekrug und viel Cassis, Weihrauchnoten, Tabak, sogar Nuancen von Kardamom, dem tiefgründigen, noch sehr verschlossenen Wein eine pfeffrige Frische verleihend. Konzentrierter Gaumen mit enorm viel schwarz- und blaubeerigem Extrakt, Brombeeren und schwarze Johannisbeeren pur, im Innern Szechuanpfefferkörner, Tahiti-Vanille, dunkles Malz, Palisander und Redwoodnoten, immenses Potenzial. Wer diesen Wein richtig geniessen will, muss bereit sein, 15 Jahre zu warten."

  "Initially the wine is all firm tannins, but then there is a pure line of fresh black fruits that comes through, with cranberry tannins and blackberry jamminess. Above it all, is succulent richness and clear acidity. A beautifully shaped wine."

  The Wine Advocate
  "Tasted at Bordeaux Index's annual 10-Year On tasting in London. The 2006 Château Angelus, a blend of 47% Cabernet Franc, 50% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, has a very perfumed bouquet with scents of blueberry, cassis, crushed violets and just a touch of mushroom. This is very generous. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth, slightly toasty entry. The acidity is quite low compared to other 2006 Saint Emilions, but there is harmony here and the tannins seem very fine. There is real density on the finish, although I was just seeking a little more delineation to come through. Give this another two or three years in bottle. Tasted January 2016."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Firm, structured, classic style of Angelus. Not exactly austere, but the tannins are strict here. Full bodied and concentrated, with ripe fruits and freshness, this needs at least a decade, but it will probably be on the classic side of the style range."

  Wine Spectator
  "This has a gorgeous nose of black licorice, black cherry and sage. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a very long finish. There's beautiful texture for the vintage. Enjoy the fruit and richness. Best from 2013 through 2017."

  "Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, jugendliche Reflexe, violetter Rand. In der Nase feinwürzig-balsamisch unterlegtes, dunkles Zwetschkenkonfit, Nougat klingt an, Gewürze. Am Gaumen saftig und süß, sehr ausgewogen, kompakt, feste, süße Tannine, bleibt sehr gut haften, hat eine gute Länge, gutes Reifepotenzial, attraktiver, moderner Stil."
