BUY THE WINE

Michael Schuster: Almost overripe fruit to smell, a touch raisiny; deliciously ripe fruit on the one hand and very wood-dry in texture on the other… so I am torn! I feel this is fine base matter marred by the winemaking. A very dry texture surrounds the lovely sweet-fruit core, shortening the wine overall. 2020–30. 15?
