Essi Avellan | Medium-deep lemon color. There is lovely, glossy, but complex fruit to the soft, seductive nose. Orange blossom, peach, orange peel, and mirabelle plums. Less charming on the strict palate, which comes across as a little edgy and austere. Good freshness and energy, though. | 89

Simon Field | Straw-green; a recalcitrant mousse, which decides not to linger; a pleasant nose of cashew, bracken, guava, and baking spice; the palate is oddly chalky, wet pavements and autumn apples a little clumsy in their interface with the sugar, a faint evocation of tobacco leaf somewhat troubling at the end. Satie mournful; distant voices, still lives. | 87

Anthony Rose | Very pale in color, almost wan; this shows sweet cashew-nut notes in its aromas, while on the palate it’s well balanced, with a juicy, stone-fruit ripeness supported by a degree of complexing leesy underpinning, and tapering to a pleasing, fruity, yet dry finish. | 90
