One of our favourite good value wines from the Vauthier family (owners of Ausone), the 2022 vintage is wonderfully charming and accessible. The blend is 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Carmenere and the wine is sweet, vinous, fresh and juicy with flavours of cherries, autumn berries and a touch of vanilla. A velvety texture leads to a generous, delicious finish. A good value wine with an impeccable pedigree to enjoy young.
