Winemaker and Vineyard: Château Ausone, a Premier Grand Cru Classé A in Saint-Emilion, has been historically linked to the Vauthier family for several generations. It is situated on the site of the ancient villa of the poet Ausone in Lucaniac (Saint-Emilion). The estate maintains old vines and produces exceptional wine each year. The vineyard covers 9 hectares and is shielded from winds, enjoying excellent exposure. The annual production ranges between 4,000 and 10,000 bottles.

Tasting: The 2018 Chapelle d'Ausone is made of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple in color, as impenetrable as this wine's big-brother grand vin wine is, this is the precocious, show-off younger sibling. It comes skipping out of the glass with bright, cheery scents of redcurrant jelly, black raspberries, stewed plums and Black Forest cake, giving way to suggestions of rose oil, dusty soil and garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with juicy black and red berry layers, framed by beautifully ripe, finely grained tannins and tons of freshness, finishing long and perfumed.

Service: Serve at room temperature (16-18°C) with a lamb fillet and celery purée.
