Chapelle d'Ausone Premier Grand Cru

Château Ausone
France | Bordeaux | Saint-Emilion
Sale price260,00€ (346,67€/l)
Lisa Perrotti-Brown for Robert Parker

The 2016 Chapelle d'Ausone has a deep garnet-violet color and smells of black raspberries, kirsch and plum jam with hints of unsmoked cigars, pencil lead, lavender and chocolate as well as garrigue. Medium-bodied and fantastically elegant on the palate, the red and black fruit layers are beautifully framed by firm but fine-grained tannins and animating freshness and it finishes long and minerally.
