BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Deep lemon-gold. Stylish, characterful nose with citrus fruit and toasty notes, as well as a fine petrolly undertone. Full, rich, intense, but not heavy. Smart. | 17

Marcel Orford-Williams | Full-flavored, rich. Some sweetness, but so what. This is brilliant. Schoenenbourg maybe? | 18

Tom Stevenson | The vanilla (not oak-derived) and peaches in this wine are almost Rheingau—almost, but not quite. Definitely Alsace! Limestone for finesse! | 19
