BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: A clear minerality to smell behind the ripe Merlot; fresh, elegantly balanced medium-full wine with a particularly fine tannin, plenty there, but such an easy balance; restrained to taste, an appetizing freshness defining the delicious sweet fruit, transparent, long, and graceful, very seductively textured, and very long to finish. A particularly refined Petite Eglise, immensely, seductively drinkable. 2024–34. 91–93
