Château Ausone Saint Emilion 2015 1er Grand Cru Classe A
Beloond met de maximale scoere van 100 punten van Jeff Leve (The Wine Cellar Insider): "This is what intensity is all about, on the nose and palate. Picture a bucket of insanely ripe black cherries, black plums and licorice squeezed over rocks and stones before it's placed into your glass, and well you get the idea. The purity of fruit, incredible level of concentration, silky tannins and a finish that stays on target for at least 60 seconds or longer is what you'll find here."

"This is what intensity is all about, on the nose and palate."
De wijnen van Château Ausone worden gemaakt van een blend van merlot en cabernet franc, met een lichte overheersing van merlot. De wijngaarden van het wijnhuis liggen op steile hellingen, wat zorgt voor een goede drainage en een optimale rijping van de druiven. De wijn rijpt gedurende 20 maanden in eikenhouten vaten, waarvan 18 maanden in nieuwe vaten.
De wijnen van Château Ausone staan bekend om hun complexe aroma's van rood fruit, kruiden, tabak en eikenhout. De smaak is vol en krachtig, met een mooie balans tussen tannines, zuurgraad en alcohol. De wijn heeft een lange afdronk die nog jaren kan doorontwikkelen.

Is there a more consistent wine in Saint Emilion? Perhaps, but it is hard for me to think of any wine that produces wine at this high level of quality, vintage after vintage. 2015 continues that streak. This is what intensity is all about, on the nose and palate. Picture a bucket of insanely ripe black cherries, black plums and licorice squeezed over rocks and stones before it's placed into your glass, and well you get the idea. The purity of fruit, incredible level of concentration, silky tannins and a finish that stays on target for at least 60 seconds or longer is what you'll find here. The only issue is, you need to buy this for your kids, as it's going to take 20years or more to start showing its stuff. But, if you have the money and the time... 100 Points

Composed of 50% Cabernet Franc and 50% Merlot aged in French oak barrels, 85% new, for 20 months, the 2015 Ausone features a deep garnet-purple color and comes bounding out of the glass with expressive plum preserves, wild blueberries and cherry pie aromas plus fragrant nuances of roses, licorice, Indian spices, baker’s chocolate, new leather and cedar chest plus a touch of underbrush. Big, rich, opulent and full-bodied in the mouth, it is laden with bold blue and black fruits, superbly supported by very firm, very finely grained tannins and wonderfully seamless freshness, finishing with long-lingering exotic spice hints.

Tasted blind. Deep crimson but an evolved rim. Sweet ink on the nose. A warm buttery note. Not quite as focused as some. At the moment it is a collection of parts rather than a whole. A bit stringy on the end. Mint and liquorice. Lots going on there
