Essi Avellan | Medium-deep lemon color. Soft and deep nose, with ripe peach, dried apricots, and vanilla complexity. Soft, gentle, and supple palate. Very friendly wine, at a great drinking age. | 90
Alex Hunt | Not much definition on the nose, but some attractive malty character on the palate; soft-textured and appealing, with decent length, maturing evenly and nicely. | 87
Tom Stevenson | First bottle: questionable nose. Second bottle: Immediately cleaner. Meanwhile, the first bottle has cleaned itself up and is really quite charming. Both are. Both have the typical gunpowdery-toasty signature and fine fruit. | 89
