BUY THE WINE

Michael Edwards: Better balance of acids and fruits; maybe some non-malolacic wines in this Vintage cuvée. Honorable 16

Simon Field: Pinprick mousse and attractive nose of praline, lemongrass, and plum. Complex autolysis and restrained acidity bind the ensemble pleasingly, and the finish has pavonine elegance 17.5

Tom Stevenson: Highly oxidative aromas, highly oxidative fruit, yet no doubting the freshness 10
