Essi Avellan: Deep lemon color. Sweet toasty nose, with bright fruit, toast, and burned match. A delicate palate, with fine mousse and a medium intensity of fine-tuned fruit. Fresh, vibrant, and drinking well now. 17

Michael Edwards: The first bottle had an odd nose—some cork taint? The second bottle was slightly better and quite clean on the nose, with good linear fruit and definition. 15

Tom Stevenson: Some niggles about this wine; opinion is reserved, but I have scored the wine as is. (Two bottles, some TCA on both, more on the first bottle, especially since it was colder and should, therefore, have revealed less TCA.) 13
