May 8, 2023 - Ruby in color, the wine shows a perfume of plums, flowers, and spice before you get to the medium-bodied, fresh, vibrant palate with its spicy red fruit profile and peppery spice note that comes in at the end of the finish. The wine was made from a blend of 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Carmenere. Drink from 2025-2038. 91-93 Pts.

May 1, 2023 - 93 vvPunkte / (85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Carmenère) Parfumierte Nase, sehr feiner Duft, Kräuterwürze, rote Beeren, etwas Rosen, komplex. Im Gaumen gradlinig mit frischem Charakter, sehr elegant, mit feinkörnigem Tannin, einer top Säurestruktur und einem Abgang der von roten Beeren und einem Hauch Früchtetee geprägt ist. Ausgewogen und mit Rasse. Wird früh Spass machen. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Château Ausone) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch
