About Château Ausone 1989
Bottle (75cl)

Château Ausone is one of the five estates that have obtained the rank of "Premier Grand Cru Classé A", the highest rank on the podium of Bordeaux wines. It is made from a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc.

Château Ausone 1989 is dressed in a beautiful garnet colour of medium intensity and slightly amber on the edge.
On the nose, it gives off scents of green tobacco and earthy fruits, accompanied by mineral notes and a hint of wood.
On the palate, Château Ausone 1989 is moderately full-bodied, elegant and spicy. The fruity aromas present on the nose, with blackberries, prunes and a hint of mint, in perfect balance with silky and abundant tannins that slightly dry up the finish.

Like most of the wines of Château Ausone, it needs to mature for many years in the cellar to reveal its full potential. This 1989 vintage from Ausone is now suitable for tasting even if it can become even more complex with a few more years in the cellar.
