Chateau d’Angludet 2015 Magnum Bordeaux Fine Red Wine

Nestled in Bordeaux’s prestigious Margaux appellation, Château Angludet 2015 embodies refined terroir expression at an accessible price point. Restored by the Sichel family since 1998, this Cru Classé estate now produces wines rivaling iconic châteaux like Margaux’s Lynch-Bages or Cantenac-Brown – yet remains undervalued compared to peers in its tier.

The 2015 vintage showcases masterful balance between 65% Merlot-driven softness and structured 30% Cabernet Sauvignon/Petit Verdot backbone. Traditional cement fermentation vessels preserve fruit integrity during 25-day macerations before 12 months in French oak (33% new barrels). Bottled unfiltered in spring 2017 with minimal egg white fining, this wine maintains vibrant acidity while developing tertiary nuances ideal for mid-term cellaring (5-8 years).

Aromas burst with blackcurrant compote layered over graphite and toasted cedar nuances – classic Margaux complexity without excessive oak influence. The palate reveals silky tannins cradling dark plum flavors interwoven with dried thyme accents from limestone-rich soils. Perfect as an affordable alternative to classified growths or elevated pairing for Sunday lamb roasts and aged cheeses.

Key differentiators include:
– Estate-grown vines averaging 35 years old
– Gravity-fed vinification preserving freshness
– Annual production limited to 12,000 cases
– Histroic presence since 1855 classification

Ideal for collectors seeking undervalued growths or enthusiasts wanting accessible Margaux character now through 2030+. Pairs exceptionally with slow-cooked beef bourguignon or herbed rack of lamb – let its structured yet approachable profile elevate your next gourmet meal or special occasion toast.
