BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Deep lemon-gold. First bottle corked. Fresh, ripe, fruity nose, with tropical fruit and peach. Full, rich, highly oily, and rounded, velvet-smooth. Quite sweet, but acidity suffices. Long, rich, overt palate. | 16

Marcel Orford-Williams | First bottle corky. Second bottle rather lifeless. Sweetish, dull. Short. | 13

Tom Stevenson | A beautifully balanced, delicious, essentially (if not scientifically) dry Riesling. | 18
