Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite)

Château d'Aussières

Aussières White

Vin de pays d’Oc.

Vintage 2009

Weather conditions were rather mixed in the Languedoc. A fairly rainy winter created good water reserves and mild temperatures during April and May favoured vegetative growth. The Klaus storm passed in January 2009 causing damage in several parts of the region with winds reaching 180km/h, but fortunately the vineyards at Aussières were spared. High temperatures in the summer accelerated the ripening of early varieties like Chardonnay.

Beautiful pale yellow colour with lovely hints of green. Flattering, elegant nose with aromas of citrus and exotic fruit. Slightly woody notes develop and blend into the bouquet. Subtle, delicate attack quickly followed by a pleasing roundness and plenty of freshness. This wine has good body and just the right balance between acidity and smoothness.
