Château Angludet

Located at the heart of the prestigious appellation of Margaux in Bordeaux, Ch. Angludet is one of the oldest properties in the Médoc, with a history which goes back to the twelfth century. Vineyards on the current site date back to the early 17th century but the drive towards the high levels of consistency and quality that the estate is known for today was begun in the 1960s, when the Sichel family purchased the estate. Their constant quest for quality is reflected in their policy of drastically limiting the yield of each vine and finding the natural balance of the entire vineyard, in order to get the best expression of this exceptional terroir in every glass. Angludet now competes at the same quality levels as many of the Grands Crus Classés of the appellation and enjoy a worldwide reputation for its elegance, aromatic finesse and exceptional ageing potential.  View our selection.
