Essi Avellan | Peachy color. Soft, ripe, fruity nose, with sweet strawberry and peach fruit. A touch of spicy complexity and undergrowth evolution. Fresh, with accentuated acidity on the round, generous palate. Long, suitably dry finish. The subtlest touch of oxidation dulls the fruit. Bottles 1 and 2 both similar. | 90
Simon Field | Expressive onion-skin color; an equally expressive aromatic of bilberry, tobacco leaf, and a hint of thyme; rich, resinous, elegant, herb-infused palate, dry, yet brilliantly articulate, bilberry and fir-tree, crisp and fine-tuned; evocative and incredibly long in both the mouth and the memory. | 91
Anthony Rose | Coppery bronze in color, fine, expressive aromatic quality, showing a degree of complexity along with attractively vivid berry-fruit aromas; finely textured berry-fruit richness on the tongue, tantalizingly gripping with its cranberryish acidity, making for a high-quality, saliva-inducing, dry rosé. | 92
