Essi Avellan: Deep lemon. Fragrant super-fruity nose with floral tones. Lovely pastry tones, candies, and perfumy toast. Feather-light fluffy palate, soft and caressing, with an exceptionally fine mousse. Long, succulent, fruity and pure finish. Pure pleasure. Soft, mellow, and ready to be enjoyed, but comes with further potential. 93

Alex Hunt: Strikingly vinous and fruit-forward, with red apple, currants, and (benign) flinty reduction; this wine smells much more like ripe Chablis than Champagne. The problem is the fizz—not in itself, but in relation to these flavors. They would be wonderful within a Chablis texture; here, the overall effect is too dry and lean. It’s a shame: a characterful, lively mouthful that is balanced toward aggression. 84

Tom Stevenson: Some underripe fruit notes together with creamy-lactic aroma and a slip-slidiness on the palate. 82
