"This organic wine is Merlot dominant, blended with Cabernet Sauvignon, and comes from a Bordeaux Entre-Deux-Mers estate. Raspberry aromas with a little mocha. In the mouth this is an energetically fruity wine with a salty licorice length. (2019) 89-92 Points

"Forthright, ripe blackberries on the nose, just a touch of soft tannin and lively acidity, make this an attractive red. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold". (2016) 90 Points

"The 2018 Auguste is a plump, racy Bordeaux that will drink well with minimal cellaring. Super-ripe red cherry, spice and white chocolate add to the wine's flamboyant personality."
- Antonio Galloni Vinous
HOW PASSIONATE ARE WE ABOUT MAKING GREAT WINE NATURALLY?
The winemaker at Château Auguste plays music to his vines twice per day!
"Genodics uses various sound waves and frequencies to stimulate the vines natural resistance to pathogens such as bacteria, fungus, and viruses. This allows us to leave out the chemicals and pollutants.... Pure as nature intended."

“Crisp and refreshing. Watermelon and strawberries.” Ryan D. - Vivino.com
Soft and well-integrated aromas that include roses, limes, lemon and some nuttiness. A supple wine with well-integrated tannins and acidity and almost Provencal linearity. A well -made rosé—which can be challenging to locate from Bordeaux. TOM MULLEN FROM FORBES 92+ POINTS
Named the number one Bordeaux rosé, this wine is a vivid pale pink. Vibrant, mineral-accented strawberry, red currant and tangerine scents carry a suave oral overtone. Racy, precise, and light on its feet, this wine celebrates tangy red berry flavors and a bracingly beautiful minerality. Lithe and pure with no excess weight but plenty of depth, Auguste has a stony and fresh finish that displays excellent clarity and persistence.
Château Auguste Rosé is an elegant and versatile wine that can be paired with many dishes such as lobster, seared salmon or tuna; meat dishes such as duck, turkey, and rare lamb; pasta and risotto; or lighter fare such as salads and vegetarian dishes. Pairs lovely with French cheeses such as Camembert and Brie. Of course, it can also be enjoyed alone.

“Great Vintage from the right side of Bordeaux. Nice medium body.” – Elizabeth P. - Vivino.com
A well-balanced, well-structured, medium-to-full-bodied Bordeaux. This wine is rich with fresh black fruit and soft integrated tannins. Complete with aromas and flavors of blackberry, blueberry, dark plum, black cherry, licorice, and cedar with a beautifully persistent finish. The Auguste Rouge was awarded 90 points by James Suckling in both 2015 and 2016.
Château Auguste is an approachable and exquisite Bordeaux in the whole sense of the word. Merlot is the dominant grape, and Cabernet Sauvignon plays a supporting role, adding complexity to this great wine. This is a magnificent and versatile wine that can be paired with steak, veal, venison, and poultry or pasta dishes.

CHÂTEAU AUGUSTE
Château Auguste is a 74-acre Bordeaux Superieur estate located in the Right Bank region of Bordeaux within the Entre-Deux-Mers appellation. The enchanting name “Entre-Deux-Mers” – translated as “between two seas” or “tides” – refers to the Garonne and Dordogne rivers that form the boundaries of this triangular region. For thousands of years, the two rivers have deposited sand and gravel slowly creating layers of limestone deep within the earth. Given the fertile landscape, Romans were the first to plant vineyards here, with monks later developing the area during the Middle Ages.
The estate is organically farmed, with the château producing 16,000 cases a year.
