Description

Château Ausone 1986
St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A)
u. 1 bn, excellent colors and clarity, very slightly soiled labels

One feels the scent of Cabernet Franc on the nose. Violets. Perfect balance between the fruit, the acidity and the tannin. Roasting coffee beans plus plums macerated in liqueur. The tannins are so soft now and there is terrific elegance and finesse, with top-quality chocolate at the finish. I was very impressed with this on a recent outing. Just tasted again and very consistent, only the chocolate at the finish had turned into mocha! Serena Sutcliffe, MW
