CHÂTEAU ANGÉLUS 1989 (1)

Saint-Émilion. Premier Grand Cru Classé
u. vts. marked label.

A beautiful sweet blueberry and blackberry-scented nose of olive, licorice and cedar wood is followed by a full-bodied and opulent wine, with hints of espresso roast and chocolate as well. It seemed to gain a lot in the glass, but the astringent tannins in the finish still seem a bit awkward and distracting. I think bottles I’ve had have generally shown better, although this is certainly an exceptional wine. It has just suffered somewhat in comparison with several of the other vintages. Drink now to 2030. August 2015 WA 94

CHÂTEAU L'EVANGILE 1982 (1)

Pomerol.
u. vts. stained, soiled & damaged label. scuffed capsule.

A blockbuster, dark plum/garnet-colored wine, the 1982 L’Evangile reveals a decadent, extravagantly rich nose of caramelized fruit, plum, licorice, smoked meats, and toffee. This opulent, full-bodied Pomerol caresses the palate with layers and layers of glycerin and fruit. The tannin is barely noticeable in this massive, rich, gorgeous effort. The complexity of the nose alone is worth a special admission price. It is close to full maturity, and is capable of lasting another 20-25 years. June 2009 Drink: 2009-2034 WA 98

CHÂTEAU LA CONSEILLANTE 1989 (1)
