Michael Schuster | Dense, closed, markedly mineral; full, fresh, concentrated, tannic wine, a fine, full, firm, Long-term constitution; very black-cherry ripe palate, broad, ample, mouth-coating, dense, and generous, yet remaining remarkably elegant given all that. Freshly defined, long and complex, firm but very fine in tannin, a deliciously deep, sweet, sonorous fruit, then great aromatic length to finish. An exceptional combination of power and refinement, a remarkably complete yet elegant, fresh, and restrained expression of the terroir. It will need at least a couple of decades. 2038–60+.
