Essi Avellan: Deep golden color, with onion-skin hue. Pronounced, evolved nose of baked apple, honey, and dried fruit. Fruit has died, has strongly oxidative character. Unpleasant dry, pungent finish 11

Simon Field: Deep, almost maderized color; too old and too oxidized. Too bad 13.5

Tom Stevenson: Dark color, quite oxidative, lovely soft mousse—just a pity it could not be more reductive. Not very nice on the finish: bitter aftertaste. The more you let the finish come down, the more it comes back up! 15
