BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Medium-deep lemon. Youthfully floral, sweet, white-fruit nose, with mild spiciness. Strong acidity, soft, loose, oily palate. Less character here. | 14

Marcel Orford-Williams | Lovely, ripe-fruit flavors here. Crisp, hard-edged, apples again. Long but not especially fine. | 14

Tom Stevenson | Rich in fruit, but it lacks vivacity. Either it has the common touch, or it is much too young. It will certainly improve in the bottle, but by how much? | 14
