Essi Avellan | Pale-lemon color. A super-refined nose of gently toast-complexed fruit; whiffs of fruit drops, vanilla, and toffee over pristinely ripe fruitiness. Lovely soft volume to the palate, of the smoothest mousse. Creamy and intense, with a long carry. Starting to drink very well, with expression. | 94
Simon Field | Subtle nose, yet with a lively mousse; tobacco leaf, pineapples, quince, and a hint of verbena; chalk without dust; power without depth; a well- rehearsed piece, feeding from the benevolence of the vintage, and assuredly with much to deliver down the track, although it promises much already! | 90
Anthony Rose | Lemony in color, this is attractively fresh, with an alluring, bright, fruit quality on the nose and a degree of complexity, while the palate is bright and vibrantly fruit, quite winey in a way, too; overall, well-balanced and mouthwateringly bone-dry on the finish. | 92
