Description

Without doubt the best d’Angludet we have ever tasted, this 2008 certainly has the wow factor. The Sichel team knew how to make not just good wine but great wine from a tricky vintage. Extensive work in the vineyard more than paid off with superb quality fruit as the result. With a good depth of deep, dark fruit, ripe but very present tannins and a lovely, long fruity finish, d’Angludet’s 2008 is very impressive indeed - and at this incredible price it is a complete bargain to boot. Seriously good value!

Critics reviews

Robert Parker 85/100
Unimpressive from barrel, from bottle the 2008 dAngludet remains a lightweight, undistinguished, straightforward wine revealing herb-tinged red and black currant and subtle smoke notes as well as a short, clipped finish. It should be consumed over the next 5-7 years.Robert M. Parker, Jr. - 02/05/2011

Deep purplish crimson. Fragrant, scented, complete – elderberries again. Very opulent but good freshness too and some very ripe tannins. Real zip on the finish. An admirably complete wine. Long. Perhaps a little less classical than some but very well sculpted. jancis_robinson_mw MW - JancisRobinson.com - Apr 09)

It lacked texture and revealed a narrowness as well as some scratchy tannins, suggesting the selection was not as severe as that practiced at more renowned estates.
