BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane: Fruity strawberry notes on the nose; not very intense or complex but deftly made from a not-really-first-class quality of harvest. The finish is lacking complexity and nobility 15

Thierry Desseauve: Havana and cedar notes, good length, good structure; a lack of depth 15

Michael Schuster: Ripe, fresh Cabernet fruit to smell; nicely balanced, ripe-fruited, fresh, but accessible lesser Pauillac; chewy but not coarse, and with nice length. Needs food, but satisfying in its firm, juicy Pauillac style. 2014–24 15.5
