Michael Schuster: Refined nose, smoky, minerally, subtle; full and very finely but firmly tannic; also fresh and overall beautifully balanced. A powerful wine but without excess, freshly ripe in fruit to taste, long, close-grained and refined, with a marked, subtle, gravelly element and a prolonged, aromatic aftertaste. Fine, long-term La Mission. A much more refined impression now than en primeur. 2025–40+. 18.5+
