Essi Avellan | Lemon-gold color. Subtle, utterly sophisticated nose, withatoast-laden and soft, fruity profile. Pastry-shop, burned-sugar, and vanilla complexity. Really promising. Lovely intensity on the voluptuous yet fresh palate. Beautifully textured and creamy. Very charming style. Shows aging evolution but has lots of life ahead of it. | 94

Simon Field | Raw and slightly tired, oak impulsion driving it into mediocrity. | 82

Anthony Rose | Lemony in color, this shows pleasingly fresh, appley aromas, and a pleasantly constructed mousse of fine bubbles bisected by good, trenchant, fresh acidity in Cox’s apple vein, finishing nicely dry. | 90
