<p>From the Ausone stable. 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Carmenere. Dark forest fruits, with crunchy redcurrant and blackberry on the palate and a juicy freshness. Firm, grippy tannins at present.</p>
"Part of the Vauthier family’s Ausone stable. 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Carmenere. The dark berry flavours here are lifted by minty vivacity, with a good purity of fruit on the mid-palate, framed by fruit-coated tannins.
