The Cellar — Red
Chapelle d'Ausone, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2020
The purity of fruit here is really impressive with crushed currants and raspberries. Violets and lavender. Full-bodied, very intense and energetic. Tangy with bitter orange undertones. Grabs you. Chewy and fine tannins at the end. Second wine of Ausone. A blend of 60% cabernet franc, 35% merlot, and 5% cabernet sauvignon. Needs four to five years to come together and open.
