Château Angélus, until 1990 known as Château L'Angélus, or simply L'Angélus, is a Bordeaux wine from the appellation Saint-Émilion, since 2012 ranked ''Premier grand cru classé (A)'' in the Classification of Saint-Émilion wine. The winery is located on the Right Bank of the Bordeaux wine region, in the commune of Saint-Émilion in the department Gironde. The château also produces a second wine named Carillon d’Angélus. ==History== The estate has been owned by the Boüard de Laforest family since the Domaine de Mazaret was bequeathed to Comte Maurice de Boüard de Laforest in 1909, and expanded by the acquisition of Clos de L'Angélus in 1926 and a plot from Château Beau-Séjour Bécot in 1969.〔 The name refers to the three Angelus bells audible from the vineyards, coming from the chapel at Mazerat, the church in Saint-Martin de Mazeret and Saint-Émilion. Hubert de Boüard de Laforest joined the family business at Angélus in 1976 having concluded studies under Émile Peynaud at the Faculté d'Oenologie in Bordeaux.〔 Along with several modernising changes, the practice of maturing in new oak was begun in 1980. The estate has been classified as a ''Premier grand cru cru classé (A)'' since 2012, was previously a ''Premier grand cru cru classé (B)'' since 1996, and was before that classified as ''Grand cru classé''. But according to research of journalist Isabelle Saporta, Hubert de Boüard is judge and jury in the preparation of the classification.〔.〕〔.〕 Angélus is currently managed by Hubert de Boüard, with the consultancy of the oenologist Michel Rolland. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Château Angélus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
