Essi Avellan | Rich and refined nose, with bright, glossy fruitiness. Beautiful toastiness lining the sumptuous fruit. The dosage works nicely, bringing succulence to the wine. Still dry, with tension and vivacity at the finish. | 98
Simon Field | Tight bubbles, a persistent mousse; savory aromatic, recalling a great year; even hints of charcuterie behind the yellow fruit. Delicious mid-palate integration, the modest sugar ingress holding its own marvelously and reassuring that the future is secure and, moreover, that one does not need to resort to too much by way of intervention to secure it. | 96
Tom Stevenson | Again the barest whisper of something brown and oxidative, but underscored this time by extremely fresh, autolytic aromas, making the fruit come alive. Great energy. Lovely silky mousse. | 96
