Exceptional terroir of 4 hectares on a south-facing slope (like Pavie) at the entrance to the village of Saint-Émilion. Taken over in 2014 by her family, Pauline Vauthier (Ausone) is committed to highlighting the deep, juicy flesh of her grapes, with a confounding naturalness and a splendid aromatic radiance. La Clotte has everything it takes to quickly become one of the most cult wines of the appellation.
The terraces of Moulin Saint-Georges (7 ha) face those of Ausone (same owner). For the quality of its terroir and the refined style of its wines, Moulin Saint-Georges is a grand cru classé in power.

2017 vintage rated 92/100 by Jean-Marc Quarin "Juteux à l’attaque, très savoureux, gras et même puissant pour le millésime, le vin s’achève long en conservant de la minutie dans le toucher. Ce millésime apporte une douceur supplémentaire qui convient bien à son type. C’est très bon". (Oct. 2020)

Impossible to resist the unspeakable complexity of its bouquet, floral and fruity, spicy and liquorice, as well as the incredible depth of its fresh and sumptuous finish. Great art, all the glory of Cabernet Franc on a limestone hillside. Pauline Vauthier manages the 7 hectares of Ausone like a (very) great Burgundy wine. Magistral!

The 2012 vintage is rated 97/100 by Jean-Marc Quarin « Une fois de plus, la minutie de la texture fait merveille dès l'entrée en bouche. Le vin se développe ample au milieu, sur un corps fondant, avec beaucoup, beaucoup de goût. Il évolue sans cesse juteux, profond, noble et même complexe dans ce millésime, dont il est le roi à Bordeaux. » (Feb. 2020)
