    The freshness of the vintage so evident on the nose, really nicely judged restraint and the trademark Lafite elegance. There’s no mistaking where this is from though, with an herbaceous garrigue undertow on the nose, overladen with lovely glossy blackberries and raspberries. The purity of the fruit it wonderful, opening up to the salty mineral core hiding inside. Bright and very accomplished, this is already providing a lot of satisfaction in the glass but will age really well over a relatively short period of 3-7 years.

    (Corbières; 56% Syrah; 27% Mourvèdre; 10% Grenache Noir; 7% Carignan - in fresher vintages, like 2021, there is more Mourvèdre, Grenache and Carignan here; pH 3.57; from selected parcels at the top of the slope on low-yielding soils of clay and sandstone; sourced from around 25 hectares from a property of 150 hectares; all the parcels have a northern exposition with their backs to the Mediterranean, but crucially refreshed by it; 50% is aged in French oak barrels, a third of them new; 14.5% alcohol; certified organic in 2022, so this vintage made in transition; tasted with Jean de Roquefeuille and Olivier Gailly). In the vineyard there was plenty of frost damage, but only at lower elevations. The end result was just to delay the maturation of the fruit which was, consequently, picked in fresher conditions. Impressively youthful. Less spicy, toasty and rich than the 2020 and correspondingly more marked by the fresh dark autumnal berry fruits. There's a touch of grated mace and plenty of peppery Syrah spice. Sage too and a pleasing hint of graphite. This is saline in its minerality and almost a little Italianate, as I have noted before here. There's also a slight bloody-ferrous note. I prefer this to the more brusque and burly 2020. This, in contrast, though just as intense and powerful in its way is, at the same time, altogether lighter on its feet with a very lifted and aerial finish.

Aussières has made wine since the Roman era, a period when the great properties of the “Roman province of Narbonne” were recorded in the land registry and became the main wine suppliers to Rome.  Acquired in 1999 by Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite, the 550-hectare Domaine d’Aussières underwent a vast rehabilitation programme to restore and revitalize one of the oldest and most beautiful wine-making properties in the Narbonne region. 167 hectares of vines were replanted with carefully selected traditional Languedoc grape varieties: Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Carignan, complemented by Cabernet, Merlot and Chardonnay. The estate buildings were restored at the same time and a new winery installed in the old cellars, in the heart of the vineyard. Two thirds of the vineyard fall in the Corbières AOC appellation and one third in the Vin de Pays d’Oc appellation. The consistency and remarkable potential of the wines produced since 2003 have already positioned Aussières as one of the front runners in the revival of the Languedoc.Read less

Region

Corbières

An appellation within the Languedoc in Southern France set in the Pyrenean foothills. This wild, hilly terrain is extremely varied, and old vines cling to the gnarled rocky hillside amongst the garrigue. Mourvèdre, Carignan, Grenache and Syrah thrive here in this wild environment, and produce wines with spice and concentration.
