BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: Mineral and blackberry Cabernet nose; rich, very fresh medium-weight, with particularly fine tannins; vital, graceful, freshly sweet, with a most seductive core fruit; restrained, gently but clearly mineral, very long and refined to taste, Margaux delicate, and very long and fragrant to finish. Classic Margaux style, a wine of beautiful texture and fragrance. 2026–36+. 92–94

Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Dark, rich, very fine and great class, still a bit tight, like its neighbors, at this stage. 95–96
