A pleasant surprise when I think of what proprietor Alain Vauthier has done over the last decade, the outstanding 1982 Ausone exhibits plenty of licorice, fruitcake, mineral, kirsch, and black fruit characteristics. Medium-bodied and elegant with a touch of austerity at the finish, it should be consumed over the next 10 years. Score: 90 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2009-2019 01 June 2009 |

Deep and smudgy at the edge. Easy and soft, but absolutely correct mature St Emilion. Score: 18 - 19 Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2002-2009 26 September 2005 |
