BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Light buttery notes on the nose, due to the early influence of the wood. Complete wine, splendidly bright and pure noble rot, and great length. 18/18.5

Michael Schuster: Turbid gold; closed, but clearly refined to smell; very nicely balanced, rich and vigorous, intensely sweet, long, and complex across the palate, with a very persistent finish. In a slightly quieter style for the vintage, and none the worse for that. 2012–30+. 17/17.5
