Essi Avellan: Distinctly oxidative nose with bruised fruit. Toffee and apple dominating. Round, plush body with opulent fruit. Long, juicy, succulent finish. 88

Alex Hunt: Pure, focused, and fresh, this feels like a very youthful example. It has green apple and slight yeasty-cheesy notes, all quite tightly wound at this point, but on the palate there is a certain pappy quality, a blandness, reminiscent of certain 2006 Burgundies. Inexpressive at this stage. 86

Tom Stevenson: Good fresh balance of fruit and yeast-aged complexity. Long and biscuity, with a creamy finish. 90
