The captivates your focus with its showy display of flowers, crushed rocks, black, red and blue fruit, espresso and thyme. It takes a bit of coaxing and patience, but there is an incredible level of depth, purity, refinement, and vibrancy at play here on the palate as the wine gently coats your palate with its layers of salt-infused, black and dark red fruits. The deep seamless finish crosses the 60 second mark and keeps on going as it continues showing off its essence of minerals of fresh berries. This could be the longest lived wine of the vintage. Drink from 2030-2075.

Tasting from the barrel at the Chateau. While obviously still young, the wine is already showing its potential. A huge amounts of fruit still on the nose, but surprisingly, not overpowering. The palate contains burnt wood, and nuts before turning over to the typical soft mineral characteristics that make an Ausone a true delight to taste!
