BUY THE WINE

Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | Lovely, spicy nose, lively wine, very direct and complex but with tannins that are still a bit tight. Mid-palate is a bit lacking. | 16

Michael Schuster | Ripe, gently oaky nose; light, fresh, very delicately tannic; a crisp sweetness behind the gentle fleshiness, with limited scope but good length. Pretty Issan, pretty Margaux. 2018–25. | 16
