CHAPELLE d'AUSONE Second wine from Château Ausone 2023 Futures

Second wine of Ausone, rare (1 ha in production out of the 7 ha of the Ausone vineyard), slightly less powerful but just as racy and energetic as the Grand Vin. And like it, it has a remarkable capacity for ageing.

Like all Vauthier vineyards (Ausone, La Clotte, Moulin Saint-Georges, Haut-Simard...), Chapelle d'Ausone began its conversion to organic farming in 2020.

Le Point : 16/20 « Nez aérien, frais, fruits rouges, note floral, pivoine, bouche bien vive, tanins serrés, délicats, note mentholée. Très pur. »
Bettane & Desseauve : 92-93/100
 « Tout en verticalité crayeuse, avec un fruité tonique et une belle impression de fraîcheur. »
Quarin : 96/100
 « Nez intense, fin, fruité et subtil. Touches complexe d'encre et de framboises. Minutieux en entrée de bouche et de suite velouté, avec un corps fondant, à la suavité rare pour un tel taux de cabernet franc, le vin caresse le palais avant de resplendir d'éclats aromatiques nobles dans la persistance. C'est magnifique ! Le meilleur "second vin" de Bordeaux. Le frère d'Ausone. »
Galloni : 92-94/100
 « The 2023 Chapelle d'Ausone is fabulous, as it often is. Succulent, ripe tannins give the 2023 tons of pure charm. Dark red/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol, licorice and mocha all run through this sumptuous yet structured Saint-Émilion. This will be stellar in another few years time. »
Martin : 90-92/100 « The 2023 Chapelle d'Ausone has a well-defined bouquet with dark berry fruit, bell pepper and light gravel scents, nicely focused with a subtle marine influence. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins, though it is not as fleshy as previous vintages with quite a strict and linear finish. I suspect it will fill out during barrel-maturation. »
