2000 Ausone Bordeaux - 100 pts!
Proprietor Alain Vauthier has produced a prodigious wine that captures the essence of Ausone's terroir. A saturated black/purple color is followed by sensational aromas of ink cherries blackberries blueberries and that wet stones/liquid minerality characteristic. The wine has phenomenal presence on the palate as well as astonishing richness and purity. Despite its extract power and richness it is remarkably light with a surreal delicacy. It is a tour de force in winemaking and a compelling expression of this magical terroir. It should prove to be legendary but sadly anyone over the age of 50 will probably not live to see it come close to maturity. RP
