Tasting notes
Based on 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2024 Le Carillon D'Angélus sports a slightly deeper ruby hue as well as a beautiful nose of black raspberries and cassis intermixed with spice wood, graphite, and spring flowers. It's polished, medium-bodied, has fine tannins, and shows the fresh, crisp, yet elegant style of this château and vintage.

The 2024 Le Carillon d'Angélus offers up notes of dark berries, minty cherries and toasty oak, followed by a medium-bodied, softer and rounder palate that's more charming than the No. 3.
Love the bright fruit, just a slight kiss of cedar and sandalwood oak, even a touch of incense. Not huge depths compared to some vintages but they really have leaned in and delivered a vivid, sappy and mouth watering wine, with confident tannins. 45hl/h yield. 40th anniversary vintage of Hubert de Böuard.
Creamy and resonant on the palate, the 2024 Carillon is laced with dark cherry/plum fruit, new leather, spice, menthol, espresso and a kiss of French oak. There's terrific textural depth and resonance here. I especially like the way the 2024 explodes on the back end. This is beautifully done.
