2018 LE CARILLON DE L'ANGELUS ST EMILION

(93 Points) I loved the 2018 Carillon D'Angélus. This Merlot-dominated blend (there's 15% Cabernet Franc) offers a healthy ruby/purple color as well as a complex, smoky bouquet of ripe black fruits, graphite, tobacco, and a kiss of earth. Rich, medium to full-bodied, and beautifully balanced, it has a sexy, seamless texture, polished tannin's, and the class to drink nicely for 15 years or more.  Jeb Dunnuck
