Château Ausone--Vintage 1982
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A)
In original wooden case. Two damaged capsules. Badly bin-soiled and damaged labels. Levels into neck
Tasting note: Medium ruby-coloured, with a pronounced smoky, herb-tinged bouquet revealing aromas of black tea, minerals, and sweet fruit, this medium-bodied 1982 exhibits a striking liquid minerality, decent acidity, and a powerful, concentrated, long finish. The 1982 Ausone is just turning the corner and beginning to reveal considerable complexity as well as finesse. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2040. Robert Parker. Wine Advocate 129 (June 2000)
