Lot 78 Details
CHÂTEAU AUSONE 2005
Saint-Émilion. Premier Grand Cru Classé

The 2005 Ausone is a perfect wine of the vintage. It displays crushed rock, spring flowers, blueberry and blackberry fruit, a full-bodied mouthfeel, stunning purity and richness, and perfect harmony among all of its component parts (acidity, tannin, wood, alcohol and extract). Still youthful, but oh, so promising, this wine should be set aside for another decade and drunk over the following 50-75 years. 100 WA


1 bt. per lot $1,500 - $1,800

Realised: $1,680
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
