BUY THE WINE

Michael Steinberger: Surprisingly light in color, given its age. A wonderfully complex perfume, with scents of honey, chalk, lemon, and petrol. Citrus and white-fruit notes are the dominant elements on the palate, which has a dense, chewy texture. Finishes very long. A very impressive wine. 18–19
