Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Really elegant and pleasant volume, bright fruit, rich, with subtle length. Bravo! 17

Michael Schuster: Oaky nose, cedar, overripe, sweet fruit; very nicely balanced, firmly tannic medium-weight, with the year’s fresh acidity; a sweet and juicy fruit, for the moment a bit dominated by its tannic structure, but pure- cored, moderately complex, with good, gentle sweet fruit length. Very nice. 2018–26+. 15.5
