Chapelle d'Ausone 2008

Chapelle d’Ausone 2008 — limestone precision and Saint-Émilion elegance

This Chapelle d'Ausone 2008 captures the refinement of Saint-Émilion through the signature of Chapelle d’Ausone. As the second wine of Château Ausone, it offers the charm of a fine Bordeaux with character, where fruit depth, terroir precision and elegant ageing come together in a noble and immediately recognisable style.

Refined, precise and driven by fine freshness, this wine will appeal to lovers of classical Bordeaux, fine tannic structure and evolving aromatic complexity. It is a natural choice for an elegant dinner, a collector’s cellar or a prestige bottle to share at a fine table.

Profile and tasting

Aromatic profile: black cherry, raspberry, violet, wet stone, fine spice, light tobacco and a floral touch.

Serving: serve around 16–18 °C. Open with care and adapt aeration to the vintage: gentle aeration is often enough for mature wines, while a younger bottle may gain amplitude in a suitable decanter.

Food pairing: red meat, lamb, duck, game birds, mushrooms, slow-cooked dishes and mature cheeses.
