Michael Schuster | Brisk blackcurrant Cabernet and gravel to smell, classic and quite classy; full, fresh in acidity, very fine in tannins; quite dense to taste, with a very nice impression of gentle Merlot fat (plenty of it this year), a juicy fruit core, and nice length across the palate and to finish. Lovely balance. Classic in the best sense, and likely to be deliciously drinkable relatively soon, too. No lack of class or scope. 2028–30+.
