Description

Wonderfully youthful on the nose, the wine seems innocent, but attractive and compelling. Aromas of bright fruit leap from the glass, red berries in abundance. There is a lovely richness here, great structure and depth. Acidity is incredibly well interwoven with tannins to create a concentrated mouth-feel. It's a really generous, yet fresh and juicy wine. It's actually rather delicious, even at this young age and a wine which really ought to be considered strongly this year.

Critics reviews

James Suckling 91/100
The combination of ripe blackberry fruit and a hint of something floral is immediately appealing, and the dry tannins are quite discreet, making this solid wine easy to enjoy right away. But it will improve with age.james_suckling, jamessuckling_com (Feb 2017)

The 2014 D'Angludet felt a little underripe on the nose: light black fruit, slightly green underneath, one of the few to exhibit that trait. The palate is medium-bodied with a smear of bacon fat infusing the black fruit, nicely balanced towards the finish, but missing the pedigree of its peers at this stage.Neil Martin - 31/03/2017

Good meaty, even slightly leathery cassis fruit – typical richness, deep flavours, length and balance from this estate. Always a good wine.
