CHÂTEAU AUSONE, a distinguished red wine from the renowned Saint-Émilion region in Bordeaux, France, exhibits a complex flavor profile characterized by dark fruits, earthy undertones, and subtle floral notes. This 1er Grand Cru Classé reflects the terroir's unique characteristics, offering a well-structured and elegant finish.
This wine pairs beautifully with rich dishes such as grilled lamb, hearty beef bourguignon, and aged cheeses. It also complements wild mushroom risotto and duck confit, enhancing the dining experience with its sophisticated flavors.
Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2007 Bordeaux tasting. The 2007 Ausone has a high-toned bouquet, a little flashy in style compared to its peers with touches of salted licorice coming through with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and fine acidity. This is more cohesive and mild-mannered than the feisty aromatics, with good depth and a caressing, quite plush finish. It is a fine Saint Emilion, though it does not quite possess the breeding of the Cheval Blanc 2007 that was tasted alongside. Tasted March 2015.
