The 2014 Ausone has retained that purity, pastille-like red berry fruit on the nose, with touches of clove and bay leaf, perhaps almost Burgundian in terms of its allure. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy, pliant tannins that manifest its velvety texture. This might be the most seductive of any 2014 Bordeaux, fanning out beautifully towards the almost citrus-fresh finish. Gorgeous. Tasted at Bordeaux Index's 10-Year On tasting.

A barrel sample. Oh so young. Hopefully I'll have a chance to taste this again in 10 years.

Another classic Ausone. Has to be one if not the top St emilion of the '14 vintage. #enprimeur
