Aromas of fresh herbs, such a basil and lemon grass, come through here, together with blackberries, dark plums and some orange peel. Medium-boded with medium, velvety tannins that provide layers and a polished texture. It's long and creamy with lovely fruit at the end. A beautiful wine with a pretty structure, too.

Deep and heady aromatics of blackcurrants, plums, and liquorice, lifted by delicate floral notes. The palate is smooth, succulent, and juicy, rich in flavour complexity yet light in density. Gorgeous, ultra-fine tannins glide effortlessly, giving this a silky, mineral-driven expression. The interplay of salty cherries, crushed stones, and fresh mint makes for a joyful, moreish wine with energy and refinement. Hands-off in style but full of depth, this is a delicious and elegant second wine that drinks beautifully now

The 2022 Le Carillon d'Angelus has a soft and slightly squidgy nose, redcurrant and strawberry fruit, open-knit and thankfully gaining delineation in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet core of red fruit, a keen line of acidity with just a little tartness on the graphite-tinged finish. Fine.

Based on Merlot from the cool, clay-limestone terroirs of Saint-Christophe-des-Bardes, the 2022 Le Carillon d'Angelus offers up aromas of sweet berries, plums, orange zest, cigar wrapper and creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, it's deep and dense, with lively acids, sweet tannins and a gently lactic finish.

This second wine is poised between structure and dense black fruits. It has a dark chocolate aroma with rich spice and black plum flavors. It is solid and worth aging further.
