BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane: Very precise Cabernet nose, aristocratic body and behavior, refined cedary taste; overall purity, refinement, and balance, showing the real 2008 personality. For lovers of classical claret18

Thierry Desseauve: Havana and cedar, svelteness, more muscle than flesh. Fantastic balance18

Michael Schuster: Attractively ripe fruit on the nose; nicely balanced, sweet-cored, juicy, and appealing to taste, with just a hint of herbal edge; fresh, finely tannic; a gentle complexity and good, sweet length. Accessible relatively early. 2016–26+16+
