The 2011 Angelus is another winner from Hubert de Bouard. Supple and sexy with lots of blueberry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with licorice, barbecue smoke and camphor, this medium to full-bodied, supple-textured, sexy effort offers delicious drinking now, and promises to become even better over the next decade. It should keep for 15 or more years.

Intense nose of redcurrant and bramble jelly. Gains a lot of herbal and earthy complexity with some aeration. Very satisfying balance of full, powdery tannins and restrained richness. Quite sweet entry, but this turns decisively dry at the long, straight and elegant finish. Hint of warmth from alcohol, but this is part of the style. Drink or hold. Château Quintus vertical tasting. SP.

2011 was a fairly classical vintage, and after austere early years it's now becoming approachable, full of life, finesse and precision. You can begin to see in this wine how Angélus opens up with some bottle age. There are touches of rose petal alongside still-intense damson fruits, and the liquorice through the mid-palate is coming to the fore. There's good flesh to the tannins, and the elegance is clear without being too serious. Angélus is a wine that never forgets how to be generous.
