Neil Beckett | Mid-ruby, an authentic luster. Noble reserve, black-fruit and mineral purity, but also the cherry clafoutis warmth of the year. Medium-to-full-bodied, richness and refinement perfectly matched, the animating acidity contributing to the impression of effortlessness, despite the saturation and sustain through the fabulously long finish. Glorious, even by the standards of the cru and the vintage. | 97
