La Chapelle d'Ausone 2019
La Chapelle d'Ausone hails from the Saint Emilion Grand Cru appellation in Bordeaux, France. Produced by the historic Château Ausone, the estate is currently managed by the Vauthier family, who maintain a philosophy of compulsive perfectionism and organic, biodynamic viticulture.
Wine Description
This 2019 vintage displays a deep garnet purple colour and a highly aromatic nose featuring blackberries, black cherries, kirsch, and red plum. Sweet oak influence adds layers of pastry, vanilla, cinnamon, and violet, while the full bodied palate is sumptuous and velvety. It offers a core of cherry pie and blueberry fruit, supported by extremely integrated, supple tannins and a complex finish of tobacco, sandalwood, and crushed stone.

'Vinous - 94 points'
'Robert Parker Wine Advocate - 93 points'
