BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan: Medium-deep, peach-hued, straw-yellow color. Mild and soft apricot and candied fruit nose. Round and fruit-forward palate, drying toward the end. Clean, fresh, and easy-going. Nicely balanced and pleasant. 15

Simon Field: Attractive nose of oyster shell, flint, and acacia. Palate has an uncompromising austerity, firm citric acidity, and a no-nonsense Calvinistic sense of its own worth. A more-than-comfortable match for dishes of a crustacean persuasion. 16

Tom Stevenson: Fresh and crisp, with dried fruit supported by a firm mousse. If this had a dosage, it would benefit from a year or two additional post-disgorgement aging, but without a dosage, it really should be consumed on purchase. 16.5
