Tasting Notes

Ausone's firmly structured, tannic 1992 reluctantly reveals a nose of dusty, flowery red fruits, wood, and minerals, Light bodied and shallow, with cherry fruit flavors intermingled with the taste of herbs, this wine appears to lack a finish, depth, and intensity. Too tannic and sinewy to enjoy over the near-term, Ausone's 1992 is a likely candidate to dry out before its tannins ever melt away. Last tasted, 11/94.
