Essi Avellan | Bright lemon color. There is a vegetal and floral character to the nose, which has a touch of oxidative evolution. Great intensity and freshness on the energetic palate. Finesse needed, but the structure is great. | 87

Simon Field | Bright straw-gold; a gentle mousse; a nose of plum, fig, honeydew, and acacia; the palate is a little stretched, stewed even, its profile rather too sweet, compromised therefore in the light of the promise of the raw materials. | 86

Anthony Rose | Mid-gold, with a persistent stream of bubbles, this is classic Chardonnay in aroma, a light, almost chalky note to the gentle, toasty, lees-aged undertones, followed by a fine, richly flavored mousse whose filigree delicacy conveys its rich, toasty bubbles in a constant soda stream of toasty, flavorsome bubbles, then tapers very gradually in its length and weight to an elegantly fine, dry finish. | 97
