60% minder volume in 2021. Carillon d’Angélus bestaat al meer dan 30 jaar en was lange tijd de tweede wijn. Tegenwoordig komt de wijn van geheel eigen wijngaarden en is daarmee een op zichzelf staande wijn.
Delicate raspberry purée perfume on the nose alongside roses and violets. So charming and welcoming. Smooth and succulent, the sharpness is there with the strawberry and raspberry fruit, plus graphite and slate touches as well. Extremely silky on the palate, the flavours just glide, the tannins are pure silk, excellently textured and the fruit has a crystalline purity with a tangy edge and chalky centre. Sensitive and delicately framed in terms of grace on the palate, but with an intensity of energy and pure fruit. Very playful, drinkable. focused, bright and shining with tension. A lovely Carillon that benefitted in 2021 from its own cellar as well as 10% more Cabernet Franc in the blend than usual. | Decanter | 2022 | 92
