BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Shiny, deep lemon. Stylish nose with restraint. Toast with an underlying petrol character. Less refined on the palate, slightly hollow. Sweet feel in the finish of good freshness. Good, but not great. | 15

Marcel Orford-Williams | Lots of color. Guavas again. Full-flavored, dry. Lots of interest and a lovely, long finish. Like it. | 16

Tom Stevenson | Very fresh, light (but not lacking) and seemingly the youngest wine of the tasting so far (28 tasted). Delightful, elegant. | 18
