BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | First bottle: Badly corked. Second bottle: In condition. Attractive, fruity nose, with pastry complexity and very mild oxidative nuances. Some dusty notes, though. More fruit on the palate, too, and a touch of phenolics. | 90

Simon Field | Rich and forward; red fruits have bequeathed a spicy attack and an athletic and poised mid-palate; balanced and harmonious, with a pleasing, gently teasing lift on the finish. | 90

Tom Stevenson | First bottle: Rabidly corked. Second bottle: Sweet and tasty, nicely integrated; apparently 6g makes all the difference. | 92

Dosage 6 g/l
