Much of Château Angélus’s signature style today is rooted in romance. Stephanie de Boüard-Rivoal’s grandmother’s maiden name was Elisabeth Bouchet. Bouchet is the traditional Saint-Émilion term for Cabernet Franc. To pay tribute to his wife, Stephanie’s grandfather, Jacques de Boüard de Laforest, chose to focus heavily on Cabernet Franc at the estate, a decision that had a lot to do with love.
