Chateau La Chapelle d'Ausone 2004 Chateau Ausone

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (90)

Proprietor Vauthier’s second wine, the 2004 Chapelle d’Ausone (400 cases produced) is a beautiful effort. It may be the finest second wine currently being made in Bordeaux. It displays much of the same character as its bigger sibling, with sweeter tannins, a softer, more plush personality, and more accessibility. A liquid minerality intermixed with blue and black fruits as well as floral notes are all present. Drink this beauty over the next 15 or more years.

Winespectator (87)

Aromas of raspberries and new oak, with hints of sandalwood. Medium-bodied, with fine, silky tannins and a medium finish.
