2023 Chapelle d'Ausone, St Emilion, Bordeaux

Description

Blend: 50% Merlot; 40% Cabernet Franc; 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.

This wine will be matured entirely in new wood for 20 months, which is quite a statement of intent for a second wine. At this stage, it is quite welcoming, with a floral bouquet of iris and lavender, with red-fruit notes of cranberry underneath. The palate too is initially open and juicy, before the tannins kick in and the more spartan core is reasserted. There are lots of very fine components here, and there will be much to admire after the due amount of patience.

Drink 2029 - 2042

Our score: 16.5/20

About this wine

Saint-Emilion

Saint-Emilion

First officially classified in 1954, St-Émilion is one of Bordeaux's largest winemaking appellations, producing more wine than Listrac, Moulis, St Estèphe, Pauillac, St Julien and Margaux combined. Many of the region's finest vineyards can be found atop the steep limestone slopes of the village itself, although a fledgling band of garagiste producers are eschewing terroir to make small-batch, deeply-concentrated wines from their homes.
