Essi Avellan: Medium-deep color, with red hues. Soft red-fruit nose, with very gentle yeast impact. Wide and round on the loose palate. Foamy mousse and a short, fruit-forward finish. 16.5
Simon Field: Soft coloring, with a romantic glimpse of old gold. The wine has aromatics from the orchard, with a hint of sour honey and brioche, then a palate that draws in on itself a little, with stone fruits to the fore and a substratum of chalk to lend support and insure balance. A fine measured finish which recalls mandarin and fig. 17
Tom Stevenson: Some toffee aromas that quickly disappear; easy-drinking, soft. 17
