Overview

Composed of 50% Cabernet Franc and 50% Merlot aged in French oak barrels, 85% new, for 20 months, the 2015 Ausone features a deep garnet-purple color and comes bounding out of the glass with expressive plum preserves, wild blueberries and cherry pie aromas plus fragrant nuances of roses, licorice, Indian spices, baker’s chocolate, new leather and cedar chest plus a touch of underbrush. Big, rich, opulent and full-bodied in the mouth, it is laden with bold blue and black fruits, superbly supported by very firm, very finely grained tannins and wonderfully seamless freshness, finishing with long-lingering exotic spice hints.

The 2015 Ausone was tasted directly against the Cheval Blanc, which is always an intriguing pairing. This is extremely pure, opulent and superbly delineated, with Morello cherry, pencil lead, camphor and licorice aromas. The palate is medium-bodied, fleshy, generous and lightly spiced, with saturated tannins and cough candy-infused red fruit. It tightens up a little toward the finish but lingers long in the mouth. Excellent. Tasted at the 2015 Ten-Year-On tasting at Bordeaux Index. By Neal Martin February 2025
