Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | Great aromatic finesse but with body and nuances that makes this vintage one of the best in a long time. | 93

Michael Schuster | Closed, dense, minerally, with a pronounced gravel character; medium-full, nice concentration, particularly fine-textured tannin and fresh acidity, lovely balance; ripe yet fresh, elegant and poised, red-fruit sweet, juicy, long and fine to taste, gently mineral, classy, fine, an almost feminine delicacy, and with a beautiful length of flavor; effortless, poised, finely aromatic, and with excellent length. Quite lovely Gruaud. 2028–48. | 93–94
