Producer Information
Château d’Angludet is a wine estate in the Margaux appellation of Bordeaux’s northern Médoc wine region. Its wines are highly-regarded and often critically lauded despite being left outside the original 1855 classification.The vineyard sits on a triangular section of the Arsac plateau on Garonne gravel, around three kilometers (1.8 miles) from the Garonne river and the beginnings of the Gironde estuary which runs north before turning west to the Atlantic Oceana and the Bay of Biscay.Château d’Angludet’s neighbors in Margaux, part of the wider, so-called “left bank” of Bordeaux, include châteaux du Tertre and Monbrison. The d’Angludet estate boasts around 32 hectares (79 acres) of vines on the 81 hectare (200 acre) property, with plantings consisting of 46 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 41 percent Merlot and 13 percent Petit Verdot.
