BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane: Good nose; classical, with cedary undertones; ripe harvest, supple texture, more finesse than Lagarde. Excellent overall style; nice value for money 16

Thierry Desseauve: Classic and balanced wine. Good fruit, freshness, and length. Well built 15.5

Michael Schuster: Ripe red-fruit nose; youthful, with a firm dry tannin and red-fruit acidity to the fore at the moment. Certainly needs time to mellow and likely always to be fairly crisp in impression. 2015–18+ 13.5
