Tasting notes
A rather disappointing, but still fruity, straightforward, bistro-style St.-Emilion that is easy to drink and requires very little introspection, this 2010 should be consumed over the next 5-6 years.

Sister of Ausone. Rich and succulent ripe berries on the nose. On sands. Racy and fairly light. Easy peasy. On level of Canon La Gaffelière. LIkely to be VGV. (JR)

About the producer
Owned by the Vauthier family, who also own Ch. Ausone, this large Saint-Emilion estate is the entry-point to the Vauthier range. It is an excellent introduction to the family’s wines and great value, offering an earlier-drinking style.
