Essi Avellan: Fresh, fragrantly fruity nose with perfumed fruit, flower potpourri, toast, and lime zinginess. A light lactic whiff. Full and soft, plush palate, with enough freshness and fruit. Correctly made possessing the quaffing character. Long, juicy, mouthwatering finish. 92
Alex Hunt: Toasty notes sit alongside vivid apricot yogurt aromas, and a spicy/sandalwood note on the palate. There’s good balance and structure here; it’s fresh and lively; but there are a couple of peculiar flavors. 88
Tom Stevenson: First bottle strange, possibly Bretty. Second bottle fine and very impressive. Great combination of freshness and biscuity complexity, although a little yogurt on the nose. Otherwise excellent! 90
