Château Ausone 2020 : Rare & Timeless Right Bank Legend

Château Ausone 2020 is a masterpiece from one of Bordeaux’s most exalted estates, holding the elite Premier Grand Cru Classé A status. Perched on the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, Ausone is known for its minute production, ancient vines, and extraordinary aging potential.

The 2020 vintage, marked by intensity and freshness, is a near-perfect expression of the estate’s unique terroir and rigorous biodynamic viticulture. Crafted in near equal parts from Cabernet Franc and Merlot, the wine exudes power, elegance, and precision.

The nose is layered and captivating, offering aromas of ripe black cherry, blueberry, and wild plum, laced with violets, crushed limestone, licorice, and subtle spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet incredibly refined, unfolding with dark fruit, graphite, and savory mineral notes wrapped in ultra-fine tannins and vibrant acidity. The finish is long, pure, and seamless, showcasing remarkable depth and finesse that promises decades of evolution.

Ideal food pairings include roast duck with cherry glaze, dry-aged wagyu, truffle risotto, or aged cheeses like Tomme de Savoie, allowing the wine’s complexity and elegance to shine through.
