Essi Avellan: Odd dusty aromas. Oxidative, waxy and appley aromas. Big, plush palate and a sweet finish. 81

Anthony Rose: Quite evolved in color, with a quinine and ginger-like bouquet and light toasty note of evolution, nicely fruited mid-palate that’s complex and evolved, with vinosity and nutty complexity and behind it all a lean streak of acidity adding trenchant dryness and balance. Just starting to head downhill now so needs drinking up. 87

Tom Stevenson: Lacks freshness and precision. 84
