BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford | This dark black-red wine is quietly rather than assertively aromatic, but close scrutiny reveals attractive complexity: mixed black fruits with some savory depths, a little leafy freshness and some warm incense spices, too. On the palate, it is concentrated, rounded, and lively, with the freshness, vividness, and drinkability typical of the Haut-Médoc in 2015. That quiet aromatic complexity sustains the drinker’s interest through to a clean, classically poised finish. | 90

Michael Schuster | A discreet, subtly minerally nose; medium-full, fresh in acidity, finely and firmly tannic; long and savory to taste, ripely juicy within the tannic frame, and with excellent length. Very good quality within a firm texture. 2027–40+. | 91
