BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Sweet, ripely fruity nose, some oxidative, bruised characters and brown fruit. A mouthful with sweet-tasting fruit on the palate. Does not feel bone-dry. | 89

Simon Field | An impressive color; a nose of ginger and crème fraîche; the palate maintains the leitmotif of spicy austerity, with white pepper and cardamom to the fore. This wine challenges with its beguiling rigor. | 92

Tom Stevenson | The fruit on the palate is more wine than yeast-aged – a bit angular, lacking finesse, but technically correct. | 88
