BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan: Lemon-green color. Lovely gunpowder-led toasty and brightly fruity nose. Vanilla, peach, and lemon, with a touch of floral complexity. Less layered on the palate, which is lightweight and fresh. Lean, with a long, fruity finish that is full of energy. 91

Alex Hunt: Youthful, appley nose fielding some Burgundian sulfide (flinty) characters. Frothy palate and not a lot of finesse or depth of flavor; this is simple, rather coarse stuff. 83

Tom Stevenson: By standards in this tasting so far, this is mega-great! Fresh, vibrant, and full of energy, with classic lean structure and great intensity without being weighty. Smashing acidity, brilliantly fresh, citrus fruit. A lovely youthful wine that can be drunk now but should age beautifully. 95
