Essi Avellan | Evolving color, with peachy hues. A rather subdued, soft nose, with floral fruit expression. Wax, honey, and red apple. Woody tones are stronger on the firm and quite structured palate. A long, vinous finish, which comes with juiciness to it. | 89

Simon Field | Plangent full color, which is faintly autumnal, tumbleweed and soft amber. The nose is quite reductive, a little chamomile and salted cashew eventually revealing themselves. This is firm and resolute on the palate, the dosage well handled, the red fruits ceding to umami and baking spice; a touch aldehydic at the end, the purity of the message ultimately compromised. Tarte tatin and bacon rind, then a rather raw, uninspiring finish. | 86

Anthony Rose | Mid-gold in color. There’s a faint hint of caramel on the nose, which is otherwise somewhat subdued at this stage, while on the palate, bubbles immediately attack the tongue with a certain energy and that caramel note, before turning into a lemon sherbet-like finish, scrunching the tongue with a rather pointed crispness of acidity. | 89
