2015 Domaine de l’Aurage

Description

The 2015 Domaine de L’Aurage, the Côtes de Castillon from Louis Mitjavile, has a fragrant and pure blackberry and wild hedgerow scented nose, not intense but very well defined. The palate is supremely well balanced with fine tannin, a little powdery in texture with a hint of dark chocolate complementing the red berry fruit towards the composed and refined finish. What an absolutely beautiful wine in the making.” (4/2016) Neal MArtin for Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“Louis Mitjavile’s Côtes de Castillon Domaine de l’Aurage is fabulous. Black cherry, plum, mocha and exotic spices meld together in a pliant, supple wine that hits all the right notes. Succulent and totally delicious, the 2015 captures all of the radiance of the vintage. 91.” (4/2016) Antonio Galloni
