The brick-red color with amber hints signals over 35 years of aging. The nose boasts complex notes of nes, figs, raisins, leather, tobacco, cedar,

What a nose!!!! There wasn't too much fruit left on the palate, but the nose was phenomenal and you could really identify the cab franc.

Description

This wine exhibits an emerging aroma of violets, smoke, dark forest berries, spices and cherries, elegantly combined with a creamy touch of new oak. It is medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with a solid tannin structure. A vibrant core of fruit stands out and culminates in a long, mineral finish with notes of vanilla.

Château Ausone 1er Grand Cru Classé 2023, available to buy in our online store, is an elegant dry red wine from the prestigious AOC Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux. Made from 60% Cabernet Franc and 40% Merlot, this wine reflects the excellence of its terroir. The vineyards, which cover seven hectares spread over small terraces surrounded by stone, enjoy an optimal east-southeast exposure. This ideal microclimate, enhanced by the proximity of the Dordogne and Isle rivers, guarantees perfect ripening of the grapes, season after season.

Since 1690, the Vauthier family has cultivated these lands with unwavering dedication. Château Ausone combines techniques inspired by organic and biodynamic principles, opting for minimal intervention that allows the terroir to express itself authentically. In the cellar, the wine is aged for 20 months in new oak barrels, providing exceptional complexity and depth.

Buy this legendary Grand Cru and enjoy a wine that embodies the tradition, innovation and quality of one of Bordeaux's most outstanding vineyards.
