BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Medium-deep lemon-gold. Stylish, expressive, pineapple and lemon nose, with layers of aging characters and toast. Powerful, rich, opulent, sweet palate. Long, velvety finish, with charm. | 18

Marcel Orford-Williams | Guavas again. Maybe there’s a guava-inducing granite? Don’t like it anyway. | 12

Tom Stevenson | Ripe pink grapefruit, mandarin, and other citrus fruits from the aroma to finish. A Riesling of some gravitas. | 19
