BUY THE WINE

Essi Avellan | Bright lemony color. Inviting purely and brightly fruity nose. Ripe peach, lemon, and cotton-candy nose, with pastry complexity. Softly evolving but keeping very fruity. Rich, textured palate, with a fine, creamy mousse. Lots of attractive fruit on the fresh palate of refreshing vivacity. | 94

Simon Field | Straw color, a hint of tobacco leaf. A civilized nose of orchard fruit, nectarine, and honeydew; a hint of cinnamon and soft spice, too; the palate is broad and generous, dosage seemingly quite high, but a pleasing counterpoint of fruit and autolytic development. The grip of youth, tension on a bed of fruit and pashmina; more to come, assuredly. | 90

Anthony Rose | Pale to mid-gold in color, this is lightly herbal on the nose and quite shy, with a pleasing mousse of bubbles that’s quite stone-fruit in flavour, and while subtle, there is some underlying complexity from lees aging, which may need further time to really show itself, as it’s perfectly well balanced, if not especially expressive now. | 90
