Château Ausone 2011 (12 BT)

Château Ausone 2011  

St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (A) 

10 slightly scuffed labels, 2 scuffed labels 

55% Cabernet Franc, 45% Merlot. Lovely complex scent. Huge inky wine at this early stage, very much its own character. Very juicy. Luscious fruit, almost orangey. Dense, thick and glossy. The high percentage of Cabernet Franc augers well in this vintage. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
