2021 Chateau Ausone Premier Grand Cru Classe A, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 3x75cl

Chateau Ausone

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 95

Drink To: 2036-2061

The younger sibling of Château Ausone, the Chapelle d’Ausone is not one to be overlooked. The distinct personality of Cabernet Franc is matched with Merlot and offset by hints of Cabernet Sauvignon, to develop well rounded flavours of crisp, dark fruit. Plucked from young vines (up to ten years old) and aged in 100% new barrels for 20 months, Chapelle d’Ausone’s youthful process is still grounded in tradition. Manual harvests, combined with Ausone’s chalky limestone terroir contribute to an alchemic blend that sees the wine glide through flavours of rich fruits and piquant minerality.

Antonio Galloni

The 2021 Ausone is a gorgeous wine, but it is also quite reticent and in need of time to come around. The operative word here is balance, as all the elements are so well put together. Soft, gentle contours wrap around a core of succulent red/purplish fruit, blood orange, spice, lavender, rose petal and dried herbs. The 2021 is compelling.
