La Chapelle d'Ausone 2016

La Chapelle d'Ausone 2016 is a wine that boasts a long and storied history in the winemaking industry. The winery that produces this particular vintage is Château Ausone, one of the oldest and most prestigious wineries in the entire Bordeaux region of France.

The history of Château Ausone dates back all the way to the 4th century, when the area was first settled by the Romans. However, it wasn't until the 18th century that the property was acquired by the current owners, the Vauthier family. Since then, the winery has been passed down from generation to generation, each one adding their own unique touch and legacy to the estate.

La Chapelle d'Ausone 2016 itself is a blend of two different grape varietals: Cabernet Franc and Merlot. The grapes are cultivated in the winery's vineyards, which are located on the hillsides overlooking the Dordogne River. The vineyards are managed using traditional, time-honored techniques, such as hand-harvesting and low-yield farming, in order to ensure the highest possible quality of grapes.

Once the grapes have been harvested, they are carefully fermented and aged in oak barrels for several months, in order to allow the flavors and aromas to develop to their fullest potential. Finally, the wine is bottled and corked, ready to be enjoyed by wine enthusiasts all over the world.

La Chapelle d'Ausone 2016 is just one of the many exceptional vintages produced by Château Ausone over the years. Its rich, complex flavor profile and elegant, refined finish make it a truly outstanding wine, and a testament to the skill and artistry of the Vauthier family and their team of winemakers and viticulturalists.
