BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane: Good color, intense cedary nose, strict body, austere tannins; ancient-style, spicy but too-dry St-Estèphe 15

Thierry Desseauve: Good fruit but quite simple; has limits and seems unable to exceed them 13.5

Michael Schuster: Still closed to smell; well-balanced, finely and firmly tannic claret; freshly ripe fruit, chewy texture, modest complexity, needing time. Good basic St-Estèphe. 2014–20 15
