BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Medium-deep lemon. Sulfur-complexed with borderline too much of it overshadowing other characters. Tight, lemony, linear, and zesty. Otherwise fine but taken down by the SO2. | 14

Marcel Orford-Williams | This is a fabulous Riesling. It’s mostly all there. Still needs a little time, though. Lovely. | 16

Tom Stevenson | Plenty of fruit and an extraordinary amount of acidity. High on character, low on finesse (at the moment). | 16
