Simard 2009 (375ML)
Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate: "A real sleeper of the vintage, Ausone's Alain Vauthier took control of the vinification, and in the 2009 vintage, it shows. This wine was extremely popular in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s then fell on hard times. This is certainly their best wine in 30 or more years. Deep black cherry fruit intermixed with roasted herbs, licorice, and spice box is followed by an opulent, fleshy wine with medium to full body and loads of up-front appeal. It should drink well for up to a decade." 4/10

91 Points, James Suckling: "Intense aromas of blueberries and raspberries, with hints of citrus. Full body, with ultra-fine tannins and a fruity finish. Refined and firm. Best in 2018." 3/19
