One of the finest second wines of Bordeaux, the 2008 La Chapelle d'Ausone
exhibits abundant amounts of sweet blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with
hints of ripe cherries, loamy soil, licorice, and earth. This relatively
evolved, fleshy, full-bodied beauty should drink well for 15 or more years.Once
again, Alain Vauthier has produced a wine that flirts with perfection. As I
stated in my bottled 2006 Bordeaux report, over the last decade no proprietor
has produced as many virtually perfect wines as Vauthier.
