BUY THE WINE

Michael Steinberger: Notes of cassis, leather, minerals, woodsmoke, and spice pour out of the glass, giving way to a full-bodied, voluptuous wine whose flavors penetrate every corner of the mouth. Here, too, you find that amazing yin-yang effect of great power allied to incredible finesse. A particularly great showing for this wine, and testament to the abiding quality of this celebrated vintage. 19.5–20
