Essi Avellan: Medium-deep cherry color. Fresh, youthful red-berry nose. Smoky, with mineral nuances and cream. Medium-bodied, crisp, but loose palate. Slightly coarse mousse. Quaffable but nothing more. 15
Simon Field: Middle color, with quite unruly mousse; slightly foursquare aromas, then a palate that is sweet, precious, frothy, and firm of purpose. Be that as it may, the lasting impression is one of the confectionary store. 14.5
Tom Stevenson: Nice pale peach color; touch of DMDS on nose. Rather ordinary; somewhat angular fruit. 10
