Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | The greatest Certan de May ever, with a subtle juiciness to the fruit that perfectly accompanies the deep tannic build. | 95–96
Michael Schuster | Densely ripe to smell, black-fruit and raspberry-fragrant; rich, fresh, finely and firmly tannic, a fairly long-term but fine balance; sweet, pure, subtle, gently racy wine, long and delicate and Cab Franc-perfumed, lovely energy and subtle complexity across the palate, and fine-scented length to follow. This is a beautiful "Burgundian" Pomerol—so long and fine and graceful. 2028–48. | 93–94
