Ausone produces one of Bordeaux's most sought-after wines. Where so much of the Right Bank leans into plush Merlot generosity, Ausone is all tension and restraint, shaped by its extraordinary amphitheatre of limestone and clay on the côte above the town.

The 2002 vintage, released during Alain Vauthier's transformative tenure, is predominantly Cabernet Franc with a sizeable Merlot component, and it shows. This is a wine of precision rather than power, with cool iron-flecked minerality threading through dark cherry and dried violet.
