Stephen Brook: Invigorating apricot nose. Juicy, rounded, quite concentrated; despite fair acidity, it seems lackluster and rather short. 15
Margaret Rand: The structure in these Billaud-Simon wines comes from dry extract, not from acidity—the acidity is there, but it’s not an especially acidic year. But there’s this wonderful mineral backbone. 16
