Essi Avellan: Soft, pastry and spice-toned nose, with baked fruitiness and charred woody notes. Good succulent fruitiness on the palate, which is lined with nice, zingy, lemony acidity. Long, with charred character persisting. Concentrated and fruitpacked, powerful but low on finesse. 88

Alex Hunt: This has a very nutty Amontillado character on the nose. It’s an austere style, overly taut for the state of its aromatic development. 83

Tom Stevenson: Lovely, pale lemon-straw color, with fresh aromas nose and finish, and light-but-long yeastcomplexed fruit mid-palate and aftertaste. A keeper. 90
