BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: Pale lemon; light, unformed nose; elegantly balanced lighter village wine, with Niellon finesse. Pure and linear and with good light length, but also that overall sense of leanness, of not absolutely full ripeness that many 2006 whites have, and without the tautness and intensity of the best 2004s. Drink over next 3–4 years. 15.
