Essi Avellan: Deep lemon-gold color. Supple, mellow nose with depth. Red apple, apricot, and wax. Pronounced palate with plenty of fruit. Mouthfilling and chewy, with great invigorating freshness. Showing some evolution. 87

Anthony Rose: Pale bronze gold in color, evolved, well made. Ripe peachy fruit, with good vinosity and stone-fruit flavors. Overall, well balanced if not particularly complex, and finishing juicily dry. 88

Tom Stevenson: An enticing tad of oak, rich Pinot fruit. Good, but could be a bit lighter in weight and purer in fruit. 84
