BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: Ripe, slightly high-toned nose; nicely balanced in its oak-dry-textured style, with a sweetly ripe fruit core, finesse and complexity, and good fruit persistence. But a marked dry wood tannin mars this for my taste. Good wine in its “dry,” newwave St-Emilion style. 2016–24+ 16
