The 1988 Ausone may need 20 years to reach its peak. Unlike a number of 1988s where the balance between tannin and fruit favors the former (always a troubling sign), Ausone offers plenty of juicy red and black fruit extract in a medium-bodied, superbly concentrated, intense and powerful format. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2040.
Made when the château supposedly produced exciting wines, this is rather simple, with berry and tobacco character, full body and velvety tannins.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 19/20 points.
