Essi Avellan: Deep lemon-yellow color. Soft, evolving, toffee, yogurt, and coffee-bean nose. Fine and lacy-textured, with good tension and freshness and medium intensity. Fresh and charming to drink now, with an aging capacity for the next 7–10 years. 18
Michael Edwards: This has a full fruit expression, but the marked acidity suggests part was fermented without malolactic. Maybe it needs to be aged further. 15.5
Tom Stevenson: Nice, but no immediate finesse. 16
