Frederic Magnien, Gevrey Chambertin Lavaut St Jacques other_regions_italy The 1990 Ausone is aThere is a whiff of herbal tea to the cooler and more restrained aromas of red and dark currant, newly turned earth and game hints. There is excellent energy and focused power to the muscular medium bodied flavors that are even more mineral driven before culminating in a youthfully austere, serious and very much built to age finale. This is very good and a class Lavaut.
