Essi Avellan: Mild, rather muted nose. Soft and appley, with a flick of vanilla and fudge, but there is also something unclean about it. Bland palate with calm mousse and finish of stripped fruitiness. 83
Alex Hunt: Fairly muted nose of citrus peel and toast— then an odd, granular sort of palate, without much fizz and with clumsy, oatmealy flavors. Heavy and tiring. 80
Tom Stevenson: Dull, creamy-lactic aroma building into oxidizing creamy-caramel palate with a dull, scalped finish. TCA? 78
