BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: Pale greeny yellow; a light, but fine, scented nose; medium-full, nicely balanced, moderately concentrated and with a lively acidity; stylish, restrained flavor, ripe, gently minerally and with a clear premier cru complexity and persistence. Tauter than the Maltroie, as well as with more scope, but also that 2006 “lack of absolute ripeness, yet without being mean” feel to it. From 2010. 16+
