Essi Avellan: Medium-deep peachy color. Fragrant nose of candy and floral notes. Fresh, vivacious, and linear on the palate. Youthful, with some depth and potential. Mediumlong, bright fruity, citric finish 17
Simon Field: Relatively recently bottled vintage, the wine nonetheless impresses with its clean and forthright nose of fig, forest floor, and wild strawberry. The palate is quite muscular and rich, with an almost tannic backdrop slightly undermining the structure—or perhaps that should be underpinning the structure 15.5
Tom Stevenson: Fresh, light, high acids, clean, and very correct, but nothing outstanding 14
