Château Ausone--Vintage 2000
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
Offered in an original wooden case
Tasting note: Alain Vauthier's 'dream vintage', and tasted with him from the cask in June 2001. Immensely impressive. Most recently: very deep, velvety; initially dumb, then medicinal, finally opening up fragrantly, whiff of bramble and eucalyptus; seemed dry at first but, second time round, sweeter and richer. A superb Ausone. Michael Broadbent M.W., Jan 2005
