Essi Avellan: Medium-deep color with peachy hues. Nutty layers over the yellow-apple and yellow-plum fruitiness. Touch of oxidation masking the fruit. Round, supple palate, with adequate length. 86

Alex Hunt: Dull deep-straw color and a flat, stale nose, like cleaning out a toaster. On the palate, a bit of life up front soon reverts to this muted flavor, just leaving the impression of gas. 78

Tom Stevenson: Light lemon-gold color; fresh, creamy-lactic style, with a very soft mousse. 88
