Essi Avellan | Lemony color. Really buttery nose, with toffee and vanilla taking over the fruit. So buttery on the vinous palate, too; rather too much. | 86
Simon Field | Generous Welsh gold color; a lively mousse, keen to please; delicious nose of vanillin, pineapple, lemon posset, and irrefutable potential. The palate does not undermine such optimism; it accentuates it, for sure, maybe at a pace, so that the more flamboyant strawberry and plush notes enter the descant a little nervous of those who may be required to support their eloquent peroration. | 93
Anthony Rose | Pale gold in color, this shows fine complexity of fruit and lees-aged, honeycomb nuttiness on the nose, which follows through on the palate with a finely judged purity of fruit supported by serious, complexing light toasty notes, all finely balanced and tantalisingly complex, finishing on a mouth-wateringly dry note. | 95
