BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford: Deep red-black, with a little more red to it than to its peers. Warm, fresh currant and engaging scents, with plenty of glow and ember. Brightly fruity (currants and cherries) with ample tannins and warm ripeness: an excellent Petit Village, with the different encépagement of the wine apparent in the fruit spectrum. 2018–25. 91

Michael Schuster: Very ripe fruit to smell; full, moderately oaktannic; sweetly ripe flavor, a lightly chewy texture, moderate complexity and nice, light length. Good, not special. 2022–30. 88
