Tempo, a new addition to the d'Angélus range, is crafted from grapes harvested from vineyards acquired by Château Angelus in 2017. These vineyards are situated on splendid clay-limestone slopes in Castillon-la-Bataille, Saint-Magne-de-Castillon, and Sainte-Colombe, mere kilometers from Saint-Émilion, and are transitioning to organic farming. The dedication invested in the Grand Vin of Château d'Angélus is equally applied to Tempo, which is touted as "Bordeaux, crafted like a Grand Cru".

VARIETAL COMPOSITION

90% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc

WINEMAKING

Tempo d’Angelus is vinified in a cellar specifically designed for this cuvée, within the “Chai Carillon”, in which it benefits from state-of-the-art technology and all the savoir-faire of Angelus. Technical, environmental and aesthetic considerations were given equal importance in the design of this new state-of-the-art winery, which has been equipped with the finest wine-making tools.

TASTING NOTE

Bursting with vibrant aromas of fresh red berries and cherries, complemented by gentle hints of oak. On the palate, it offers a sense of verticality, lifted by fine acidity that brings great freshness and a pure fruit character. The finish lingers, revealing delicate notes of coffee beans and oak.

FOOD PAIRING & SERVING TEMPERATURE

Grilled or roasted meats such as beef rib-eye, lamb chops, or duck breast. Serve at 15–18°C.
