2016 Guide Hachette des Vins
Château Auris – 2014 White Saint Julien d’Auris
Guide Hachette favourite choice (coup de cœur), 2 stars**
“The previous vintage of this blend of Marsanne (70%) and Grenache blanc was already deemed to be remarkable and this one soars right to the top. An irreproachable hue of very pale yellow with green tints; an intense, precise and complex nose driven by citrus and tropical fruits (pineapple); and a round, ample and long palate showing more of the same aromas. Wonderful personality. Cellaring capacity: 2015-2017. Food pairing: Grilled sole”.

2013 White Château Auris
2 stars**
“A majority proportion of Grenache blanc with Marsanne in a supporting role. The powerful nose driven by peach and white flowers is echoed on the palate with roundness at point of entry, balance and aroma.
Cellaring capacity: 2014-2017. Food pairing: Soft goats cheese”.
2012 Red Château Auris
1 star*
“A concentrated wine with pronounced vanilla oak influence both on the nose and on the palate. Cellaring capacity: 2014-2016”.

2011 White Château Auris
2 stars**
“A white wine presenting impeccably well. An explosive nose of yellow fruits such as apricot and mirabelle plum and a palate that is equally exuberant, supple, ample and long”.
2011 Rosé Château Auris
1 star*
“A rosé scented with white flowers which combines harmony, fat and freshness”.
