BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan: Deep lemon. Pronounced nose dominated by floral and cardamom characters. Medium-weight, wide palate, with semi-refined mousse and medium length. Strong and well made but missing on elegance and complexity. 16.5

Simon Field: Spicy, gently peppery nose, then an attractive, subtle palate that will repay early drinking, such is the delicate and apéritif-friendly nature of its personality. 16

Tom Stevenson: The fruit is more yeast-complexed than actually fruit, which makes it a bit austere. Would prefer to taste this blind with food before making a final judgment, since I feel it would have more to give. 16.5
