Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Angelus 1er Grand Cru Classe A 2009

Sort vin. En enorm sky af aromaer, enorm i sin overdådige kraft. En tæt strøm af sorte bær, sorte kirsebær, brombær og cassis med en fin chokoladesoufflé og Nutella, alt sammen meget modent og forførende. Meget, meget sexet! Og med fine, røde, vilde bær. Vilde jordbær og hindbær med et strejf af røde kirsebær og slåen er sat op mod det tætte, rige, fløjlsagtige tæppe af tanniner, både i næsen og i munden. Tilsammen har den ikke kun en enorm intensitet, men også et vanvittigt løb og stor friskhed, lidt appelsinskal, så igen brombærsyltetøj og cassis. Denne vin med et utroligt potentiale har brug for tid, selv om den næsten er overvældende af smag, vil finessen og farten vinde efter 10 år. Dette er årgangens modsætning til Ausone. Det er Angelus i en ny dimension og en slags "best of". Hvis det er en blockbuster, så er det helt sikkert denne! 100/100

Parker om: Chateau Angelus 1er Grand Cru Classe A

A candidate for perfection with a few more years of bottle age, this great vintage of Angelus has an almost impenetrable black/purple color and a gorgeous nose of incense, graphite, blackberry liqueur, truffles and spring flowers. The wine is full-bodied, with a voluptuous texture a magnificent concentration and purity of fruit, a stunning finish of close to a minute, and wonderfully sweet, velvety tannins that make for a prodigious Angelus that should turn out to be one of the all-time greats ever made at this estate. Drink it over the next 25-50 years. 99+/100

Lisa Perrotti Brown om: Chateau Angelus 1er Grand Cru Classe A

Blended of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet colored 2009 Angélus sings of blackberry preserves, warm black cherries, stewed plums and dried herbs with hints of Chinese five spice, fragrant earth, truffles and new leather. Full, rich, spicy and decadent in the mouth, it has a plush, velvety texture and well-knit freshness, finishing very long with tons of spicy layers. Drink 2019-2055.

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Angelus 1er Grand Cru Classe A

To compare with the 2015, proprietor Hubert de Boüard opened a bottle of his 2009 Angelus and the similarities between the two vintages are obvious. It too is a massive, opulent, full-bodied effort that’s loaded with notions of blackberry liqueur, chocolate, roasted herbs and licorice, and it has a sexy, layered style that just begs to be drunk. This monster Saint-Emilion checks in just behind the otherworldly 2005 and is neck and neck with the 2015, both of which are young and need bottle age. 98+/100

Suckling om: Chateau Angelus 1er Grand Cru Classe A

Gorgeous nose of crushed blackberries with bramble berries and sweet tobacco. Full-bodied, with a solid core of ripe fruit and polished tannins. Compacted texture. Long, long finish. Try in 2020. 97/100

Decanter om: Chateau Angelus 1er Grand Cru Classe A

Intense chocolate and turmeric spices hit you right form the first moment. This is richly textured with a palate that is still almost primary fruit - an intense and impressive wine, with blackberry and black cherry fruits dominant, given balance and freshness by eucalyptus and mint leaf, helped no doubt by the Cabernet Franc that is such a signature of Angélus. Plenty of swagger here, vintage taking precedence over terroir at this stage of its life, and I would suggest giving it another few years in bottle before drinking. Harvest September 25th to October 14th. 97/100
