Second wine of Ausone, rare (1 ha in production out of the 7 ha of the Ausone vineyard), slightly less powerful but just as racy and energetic as the Grand Vin. And like it, it has a remarkable capacity for ageing.
Like all Vauthier vineyards (Ausone, La Clotte, Moulin Saint-Georges, Haut-Simard...), Chapelle d'Ausone began its conversion to organic farming in 2020.
J-M Quarin: 94/100 "Bright, intense, dark colour. The nose smells of raspberries, evolving intensely in the glass, fine, subtle, complex and noble. Minute on the attack, with a ravishing texture and a melting body, the wine evolves refined, racy and distinguished with persistence. The 85% Cabernet Franc and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes give this wine a unique quality of expression and aroma. The magic of Ausone's young vines." (April 2025)
