BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: Mature, brick-rimmed mahogany red; crisp red fruit nose, lightly new oak marked; nicely balanced mediumweight wine with a lively acidity and firm, dry tannin; ripe red fruit flavour, taut, moderately complex, gently minerally, and with good gravel-scented length; good, but slightly austere style of Graves, needing a year or two still. 2012-20+
