2005 Château Ausone

Community Tasting Note

96 Points

Thursday, January 29, 2015 - Bordeaux 2005 : Ten years on (Bordeaux Index London): Rich and powerful. Tannins are foreboding and over time, the terroir will shine through. At this stage more structure than anything else. Tasted from bottle along with the other ultra expensive elites of 2005, including Le Pin and Petrus, it seems to lack the "extra class" of, say, Lafite or Petrus, to county among a "top five 2005" list... But give it time.
