Overview

Andrew Jefford | Deep though relatively clear black-red. Sweet, gentle, uneventful aromas, but they betray ripe fruits. Soft, light, gentle wine for early drinking. 2018–19. | 82

Michael Schuster | Lightly sweet nose; light, fresh, gently ripe wine with a very light tannin; simple, straightforward, pleasant basic Bordeaux. Now to 2022. | 84
