Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Slightly burned nose, full but soft texture, more vinous than carruades and just as balanced. a very noble finish. 17.5

Michael Schuster: Crisply ripe fruit and gravel impressions on the nose; supple, finely tannic wine, fresh in acidity; crisply ripe fruit of some density, nice length across the palate; medium, minerally length. good petit Mouton, stylish, no austerity, no excess acidity. 2018–30. 16
