Chapelle d'Ausone歐頌堡二軍 St-Emilion
特色

Château Ausone 是波爾多右岸的Saint-Émilion產區的頂級酒莊,而且從Saint-Émilion開始實施頂級酒莊分級制度的時候,它就一直穩居金字塔尖端的Premier Grand Cru Classé “A ”,可說是Saint-Émilion產區的王者!酒莊名稱是源自羅馬時代4世紀時候的政治家兼詩人Ausonius,據說這個莊園曾是他的住所。現在的莊主是Alain Vauthier,從17世紀開始其家族就一直是Château Ausone的主人。

本莊園位於Saint-Émilion村邊陡峭的坡上,僅有7.5公頃的葡萄園,平均樹齡超過50歲。其特別之處是種植高比例(55 %)的Cabernet Franc,而且是生長在表土淺薄的石灰岩層上,讓它的酒質特別紮實而細緻,在Saint-Émilion的酒中獨樹一幟。另外1990年代後期開始局部實行生物動力法來管理葡萄園,也聘請了Michel Roland來當釀酒顧問,讓整體品質非常明顯地大幅提升,證據是自1995年份之後,Wine Advocate的評分從未低於91分,甚至還3度獲得100分的極高評價!

1995年起,本酒莊才開始生產二軍酒La Chapelle de Ausone,50 % Cabernet Franc和50 % Merlot的組合,年產量只有600箱左右。雖說它是二軍酒,但是其品質可能還比許多Saint-Émilion頂級酒莊更優異,獲得許多酒評家們的高度推薦。

One can’t say enough about the amazing job that Alain Vauthier and his daughter have done at this historic property on the decomposed limestone slopes of St.-Emilion. About half of their production goes into the second wine, Chapelle D’Ausone, which gives you an indication of the compulsive perfectionist attitude of the Vauthiers. The 2012 Chapelle D’Ausone has a dense ruby/purple color and is rich, broad and expansive, with notes of plum, blueberry and black raspberry fruit, powdered chalk and flowers. The wine is medium to full-bodied, beautifully pure and long and rich. This is better than many of the vintages of Ausone in the 1940s, 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s, which says a lot about what Vauthier has achieved. Drink it over the next 20-25 years.

深邃的紅寶石色/紫色,濃郁豐富,帶有李子、藍莓和黑覆盆子果香以及粉筆和花朵的香氣。此酒酒體中等至飽滿,純淨優美,餘韻悠長豐富。這比許多1940到80年代的一軍的許多年份都要更好,這充分說明了Vauthier家族所取得的成就。
