BUY THE WINE

Margaret Rand: A supple, ripe wine full of damsons and chocolate; silky and approachable. There’s a lovely brightness to the fruit, and the length and balance are spot on. 17.5

Michael Schuster: Ripe nose. Very nicely balanced, fresh, medium-full wine. Supple, elegant, gently ripe, fine-textured lesser St-Julien. Not particularly complex, but an easy, attractive second wine. 15
