Château d'Angludet 2003 1.5L Magnum

An elegant Margaux showcasing aromas of blackcurrant, plum, violet, cedar, and subtle spice. Medium-bodied with silky tannins, fresh acidity, and refined structure, it offers exceptional balance and classic Left Bank character.

Food Pairing: Pair with roast lamb, grilled ribeye, duck breast, venison, aged Gruyère, Comté, or wild mushroom dishes.

92 Points - James Suckling

Lots of fruit here with ripe currants and blackberries galore. Full bodied, with chewy tannins and a classy finish of selected oak and berries. Needs time to come together, maybe three or four years.

89 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Delicacy and charm often seem to be the hallmarks of Angludet—positive virtues in a world full of alcoholic, powerful wines. This 2003 has perhaps more tannins than usual from small berries, but it retains the property's elegance. Can be drunk relatively young, but certainly improves over 5–10 years.

89 Points - Wine Spectator

Aromas of currant, berry and cedar follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with fine tannins and a caressing finish. Lovely wine. Best after 2010. 7,080 cases made.

89 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

A sleeper of the vintage, the deep plum/ruby-colored 2003 exhibits a sexy, fragrant perfume of flowers, black cherry jam, licorice, and barbecue spice. Rich, velvety-textured, medium-bodied, charming, and expansive, it should drink well for 10–12
