Essi Avellan: Medium-deep lemony color. Round and ripe, maturing red-apple-and-soft-pepper nose. Straightforward but clean. A medium-bodied and energetic palate, with just enough fruit to support the high acidity. Elegant and fresh, remaining very youthful still. 17.5
Michael Edwards: More advanced, riper, and looser-framed than some; generous and ready now. 16
Tom Stevenson: Very good acids, but not as dominant as the other vintage, with less structure. 15
