The 2023 Tempo d'Angelus is a gorgeous entry-level offering from Angélus. Soft and pliant, the Tempo is an absolute delight. Pretty floral top notes lift a core of brilliant red-toned fruit. All of this is estate fruit. Tempo is quite frankly irresistible. (AG

Racy fruit with hawthorn, rose hips, red berries and cherries. Linear, with a nice structure, but nothing heavy from the fruit flesh in the middle. Fine-grained, with medium body and a chewy but juicy finish. Needs two more years to allow the fruit tannins to round off. More bones than flesh this year. Drink after 2026. (ZS)
