Essi Avellan | A stylish nose, with sweet but subtle fruit expression of ripe white fruit, peach and pear. Bright fruitiness beautifully lined with the subtlest toasty whiffs. Less reductive in style than this producer’s 2004 0g/l. The palate actually seems sweet at 0g/l! Rich and mouthfilling, but the palate misses the beautiful subtlety of the nose. The dryness bites just at the very end. | 96

Simon Field | Coconut and vanilla essence immediately evidenced on the nose; the artefact controls the ensemble; the mind’s construction faced down by a rough-hewn and almost clumsy palate. | 86

Tom Stevenson | Smooth, well preserved, but showing some age. Just floating through without showing any age, which is pretty remarkable for a 0g dosage, but also very little development on the complexity side either. | 92
