Essi Avellan: Deep lemony color. Gentle and slightly muted nose of yeast, vanilla, and yellow apple. Some dusty notes on the straightforward and fresh palate, without great depth or complexity. Evolving with a capacity for five more years; however, there is not enough finesse or intensity to lift this to anything great. 15.5
Michael Edwards: This is a well-made wine of clear citrus-led fruits, lent more interest by a pure, mineral edge. And it is still fresh. 16
Tom Stevenson: A lovely, fresh, mature, elegant Champagne. Will go coffee-like. 16.5
