Domaine d'Aussières Blason d'Aussières

The Blason d'Aussières is the second wine of the eponymous estate in Corbières – and clearly bears the signature of its more famous sibling in the glass. Domaine d'Aussières has been part of the Rothschild family of Château Lafite since 1999, who have systematically revitalized the run-down estate in the Languedoc appellation of Corbières: with Bordeaux-style precision, but distinctly southern French character.

In the glass, it displays a deep, dark ruby ​​red. The nose offers ripe blackberry, lavender, and dried garrigue herbs, along with a hint of black cherry and subtle wood spice. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins, a lively structure, and a spicy, lingering finish with a light peppery note.

Pairs well with lamb ragout with rosemary, grilled entrecôte, or a strong southern goat cheese. Serving temperature 16–18 °C , ready to drink now, but will easily keep until 2027.

The Domaine

Domaine d'Aussières

Domaine d'Aussières is located in the heart of the Languedoc – a region that long stood in the shadow of the great wine regions and is now one of the most exciting addresses in France. Behind it is none other than the house of Lafite Rothschild, which manages this domaine with the same sense for quality and origin that has made it world-famous.

No prestige posturing, but real craftsmanship: The sites around Narbonne give wines that smell of sun-warmed garrigue, of ripe dark fruits, and a hint of wild herbs. The result is red wines that carry the character of the south – powerful, but with elegance. Wines that show that the Languedoc has more to offer than many think.
