Description

Chateau Ausone 1982
St. Emilion
2ts
Bottle (4)
"Medium ruby-colored, with a pronounced smoky, herb-tinged bouquet revealing aromas of black tea, minerals, and sweet fruit, this medium-bodied 1982 exhibits a striking liquid minerality, decent acidity, and a powerful, concentrated, long finish. The 1982 Ausone is just turning the corner and beginning to reveal considerable complexity as well as finesse. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2040." (93pts Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #129, June 2000)

"A pleasant surprise when I think of what proprietor Alain Vauthier has done over the last decade, the outstanding 1982 Ausone exhibits plenty of licorice, fruitcake, mineral, kirsch, and black fruit characteristics. Medium-bodied and elegant with a touch of austerity at the finish..." (90 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #183, June 2009)
