Ausone 2013
CRITIC REVIEWS
Jane Anson
A challenging vintage, and this was the only one of the vertical where I felt a touch of evident oak, although it softens and integrates with a few monents in the glass, adding grilled gourmet depths to the sweet raspberry and redcurrant fruits. Clear finesse, youll go a long way to find a more enjoyable 2013 St Emilion, but it still bears the mark of the vintage. 85% new oak, 22hl/h yield. Has the advantage of being ready to drink right now, and easily has another decade or more. Harvest October 2-6.
Stephen Brook
Muted raspberry coulis aromas, but the palate is rich and sleek, with polished tannins and no excessive extraction. Its lightly structured and accessible, but also stylish and balanced, with good if not accessible length. Not for long cellaring. A scarce wine as only 8,000 bottles were released.
