BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Bright lemon-gold color. Soft, mild, sweet,and seductive nose. Full, fleshy, and weighty, with warming alcohol and less accentuated acidity. | 16

Marcel Orford-Williams | Lots of clarity here; precision, too. A little bit sweet and lacking real fat. Good length. Not especially fine but might find itself in a year or two. | 15

Tom Stevenson | Nice acidity and fruit focus; again a touch off the true dry scale, even though it comes within the 1:1 sugar-to-acidity-ratio group. Perhaps it is just more expressive of fruit? | 17
