Château d'Aussières 2020
Languedoc - Corbières - Red Wine -The Château d'Aussières, situated in the heart of the Corbières, in the foothills of Fontfroide, benefits from an exceptional environment, between the sea and the mountains. This high-altitude terroir, bathed in Mediterranean sunshine, is ideal for producing complex, well-structured wines. The clay-limestone soils provide optimum drainage for the vines, encouraging the concentration of aromas and the ripening of the grapes. The vines are planted on hilltops with only shallow clay where water is scarce, so yields are low.
The blend for the 2020 vintage of Château d'Aussières is 77% Syrah and 23% Mourvèdre.
45% of the wine is matured in new barrels made in Pauillac in the cooperage of Château Lafite Rothschild.
The colour of the 2020 vintage is an intense carmine red.
The nose gives off aromas of undergrowth, garrigue and black fruits, blackberries, cherries
The palate is very long, elegant and powerful, the tannins are silky, mellow and of great finesse..
12bouteilles advice : Château d'Aussières 2020 Corbières is best enjoyed at a temperature of 16-18°C, decant the bottle at least 2 hours before tasting to allow its aromas to fully develop. In terms of food and wine pairings, this Corbières goes wonderfully well with grilled red meats, dishes in sauce (daube provençale, boeuf bourguignon) or game. Hard cheeses such as Comté or Cantal will also reveal the full complexity of this wine.
Choose Château dAussières 2020 and treat yourself to a journey to the heart of the Languedoc, in a glass that combines expertise and a love of the terroir..
