Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | Rooted in a remarkable floral expression that wraps a finish dominated by violets, this 2018 gains in charm with air. Its intense satiny structure, which one can feel at the first touch of its tannin, is already perfectly in place. | 96

Michael Schuster | Rich and ripe and mineral all at once; rich, finely firm in tannin, and strikingly fresh; dense, sweetly ripe, subtly warm, long and close-grained to taste, very tenacious across the palate, great length, great finesse, great minerality; elegant, refined, perfumed, and with lovely length. A most complete l’Eglise-Clinet, nothing overly powerful, indeed an extraordinary restraint given its power. So sweet, so fresh. 2030–48+. | 93–95+
