Essi Avellan: Lemony color. Soft, vanilla-laden nose, with yellow-apple and candy tones. Singular fruitiness. Wide and fleshy, a rounded body that takes its extra-brut character very well. Appealing whole. | 87
Simon Field: Bright and expressive, pure and freshly rendered; apple-bright and citric, its valor residing in youthful honesty rather than inherent complexity. Maybe this is the faithful example of what the variety can and should do; measured moderation and a gentle tease. | 89
Tom Stevenson: A fleeting, floral note trying to make its way through the volatile aromas. Dried-out middle replaced with sugar, with a bonbon aftertaste. | 80
