Description

Characteristics and tasting tips for Château Ausone 2023

Tasting

Colour
Shining, the colour seduces with its violet hue.

Nose
Opening on fruity fragrances (raspberry, cherry), the nose reveals floral (violet), spicy notes as well as moka as it breathes.

Palate
A creamy attack precedes a palate combining soft and delicate tannins with a lively and persistent aromatic palette.

A silky and balanced great wine from Saint-Émilion

The estate

Nestled on the southern slope of the medieval city of Saint-Émilion, the Château Ausone enjoys a rich and complex history that dates back to Roman times. Its very name evokes the Roman poet Ausone who, according to legend, owned a villa on these lands. Over the centuries, this iconic property has become a true standard-bearer of Bordeaux viticulture, combining tradition, elegance and unparalleled know-how.

The vineyard

Stretching over nearly 7 hectares, the Château Ausone vineyard is located on a hillside, benefiting from an ideal exposure and a unique terroir. The soils, composed of a mixture of clay on limestone with asterias, give these great wines from Saint-Émilion a minerality and finesse that make the estate's reputation. The exceptional geographical location and the small size of the estate allow for particular attention to each vine, thus ensuring consistent quality, vintage after vintage.

Vinification and ageing

The grapes are hand-picked, then sorted with precision. They are then vinified by parcel in wooden vats. The extraction is gentle, carried out by means of gravitational rackings. Ageing for 20 months in new barrels.

Blend

Cabernet Franc (60%) and Merlot (40%).
