Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve | More delicate than powerful: subtle and complex length, focused fruit, brilliant. | 17.5

Michael Schuster | Dense and cassis ripe to smell; concentrated without being substantial, a vital to vigorous, finely but firmly tannic wine; freshly sweet, long and pure and fragrant, a bit dominated by its wood tannin, but with good length. Tannic and vivid, a fairly long-term wine for the vintage, but with finesse alongside the structure. 2022–32. | 16.5
