Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | A very subtle nose of peony and iris. One finds freshness on the amazingly elegant palate, with tannins that have great depth and energy. | 94

Michael Schuster | Dense and ripe-fruited, faintly, attractively, herbal in character, very persistent; generous, freshly defined, with firm but very fine tannins; richly ripe, yet full of vitality, tastily red-cherry fresh, long and aromatic, very subtle, brimming with tension, vivacity, aromatic density, and length of finish. Most individual, so seductive. 2027–40+. | 92–93+
