Essi Avellan: Refined nose with restraint. Delicate toasty layers over crisp white fruit melange. Linear and vibrant, with fine salinity on the finish. Brisk and nervy, long and lean, but very young still. 87

Anthony Rose: Youthfully pale in color, shy nose, a touch of mid-plate sweetness, quite soft in texture, the mousse fading rather rapidly, but a pleasantly fresh appley bite on the finish. 86

Tom Stevenson: Tastes more like a Chardonnay-dominated blend than a pure blanc de blancs, but excellent anyway when judged as a sparkling wine in its own right. Very long, with an almost indelible aftertaste. 92
