BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Big, generous nose, with a rich array of perfumes ranging from sweet, truffle-like spice to flowers, plus those notes of licorice characteristic of so many wines this vintage. Wonderful texture, great follow-through on the palate, and sensations that recall this estate’s stupendous 1952 and 1953! 18
