BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: Fine, fresh ripe fruit to smell; very elegantly balanced top St-Emilion: pure, fresh, sweetly ripe in fruit with a fine, dry tannin; long and graceful and polished and persistent. Quite powerful, but complete and quite without excess. Will be rewarding given time. Drink 2017-30+. 17+
