Michael Schuster:Mid-purple; ethereally fragrant to smell, a different order of richness in the way the nose fills the glass; a beautiful, fresh, moderately concentrated (in fruit per se) midweight balance, gently firm and particularly refined in its tannin; a lovely, mouthfilling, freshly sweet, markedly spicy flavor. Here is a pronounced gentle energy, a great tenacity of taste, a great temptation to linger as you savor—the archetypal “great” red Burgundy combination of sweetness, delicacy, transparency, understated power, and peacock’s tail radiance of aftertaste. Wonderful wine. 2028–45+.
