Château Ausone

Saint-Émilion Grand Cru
1er Grand Cru Classé A

There is gorgeous precise berried fruit, lots of excitement on the palate, fresh, ripe and round with everything in place; on the palate there are powerful tannins, sweetness, well-integrated oak; there is great density; it is very long and energetic in the finish with a mineral, spicy touch. Made from a blend of 60% Cabernet Franc, 40% Merlot, this is a terrific wine.
