Michael Schuster | Deep purple; a remarkably dense, scented, and complex nose; concentrated, fresh to vital, particularly fine in tannin; deep, sweet, rich, and intense in flavor, coruscating across the palate, a combination of an intense sweetly ripe fruit and a mouthwateringly delicious, freshly defining acidity; a different order of effortless richness and length of flavor even than the Reignots; contemplating this is to feel yourself drown in sensation, and then a sublime fruit-and-fragrance, peacock’s tail aftertaste. Radiantly beautiful wine, gloriously complete. Such sweetness, such succulence, such appetizingly defining freshness— remarkable! 2027–50+. | 97–98
