BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | First wood a bit indiscrete, texture beautifully delicate, fine tannins. The domaine is evolving toward a more elegant and nuanced style. Shows special mineral notes of the terroir. | 16.5

Michael Schuster | Ripe and lively to smell; elegantly balanced, with relatively restrained tannin within the Pessac context, plus the typical 2013 lively acidity. Briskly red fruit in flavor, moderate complexity and with good, scented fruit length. Will nonetheless need a few years to soften. 2020–28. | 16
