Whole bunch ferment, no punch downs, plunges, pump overs - just left to be and mellowed through winter in new French oak.
Ripe cherry and plum, with a hint of spice. Smooth tannins and a lingering finish.
Sweet and herbal, with honeyed notes and a warm, spicy finish.
"extraordinarily complex, nuanced, and layered." 96 points - Robert Parker
Chateau Ausone 2007 is a premier Grand Cru Classe "A" red wine from Bordeaux, France. It has a deep, intense color and a complex bouquet of black fruit, leather, and spice. The palate is full-bodied and elegant, with flavors of black currant, raspberry, and hints of tobacco and earthy notes. The tannins are fine and well-structured, and the wine has a long and persistent finish. This wine will pair perfectly with a variety of meats, including beef, lamb, and game.
Deep in color, the wine is powerful, rich gliding on refined tannins - undoubtedly a product of the Saint-Emilion terroir.

This is a wine that can be enjoyed now or aged for several years to come.
