BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Deep lemon. Classy, fruit-forward, but layered nose, with toast, honey, and light petrolly complexity. Rich, strong, and sweet. Masculine. | 16

Marcel Orford-Williams | Peachy guavas again. Sweet. Rich. VT-ish but without the quality. Falls short. | 13

Tom Stevenson | Good balance of fruit, sweetness, and acidity, but the sugar in this intensifies the fruitiness at the expense of any specific aromatics. | 16
