"The 2017 l’Aurage from deep clay soils in the Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux and courtesy of the Mitjavile family, offers mulberry, red plum and a hint of marmalade and apricot jelly on the nose, very expressive with touches of liquorice developing in the glass. The palate is well balanced with grainy tannin, a little savory on the entry with fennel and sage notes, pretty red berry fruit with white pepper and sage again towards the finish. This should give several years of pleasure."

"The 2017 Domaine de L'Aurage opens with a good attack of fruit, before giving way to hard tannins and vegetal notes that suggest the effects of the April frost were impossible to fully escape. It will be interesting to see how the 2017 develops during élevage and then in bottle. At this stage, it is decidedly awkward."
