Undoubtedly one of the wines of the vintage. A blend of 65% Cabernet Franc and 35% Merlot, this is ever so refined and controlled. Noble aromas of graphite, flowers, blood orange and Asian spices emerge reluctantly from the glass. This is introspective and coiled but harbours a wine of real stature and class. Layers of complex fruit mingle with touches of mint and shaved dark chocolate. There's a wonderful satin texture, silky and sleek and unhurried. Polished, poised, with a very easy glide across the palate. Luxury, but naturally delivered. Superb!

Unwinding in the glass with deep aromas of wild berries, vine smoke, orange rind, exotic spices and violets, framed by a deft application of classy new oak, the 2019 Ausone is full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with beautiful purity of fruit, lively acids and ripe but abundant structuring tannins. Deep, layered and vibrant, it's full of potential and will likely emerge as one of the most long-lived 2019s. This is another magical wine from what many consider to be Saint-Émilion's greatest terroir, and it will demand and richly reward patience. (4/2022)
