Overview

Essi Avellan: Medium-deep lemon. Nice, fragrant, toasty nose, with nutty complexity—a slight lift to it. Succulent fruitiness on the palate, which feels sweeter than extra-brut. | 88

Simon Field: Fat and broad-brush, a touch of lardon, violets, and quince, a little oxidized enfin. The ensemble is difficult to appreciate, its components wrestling unsuccessfully with the concept of harmonious integrity. | 85

Tom Stevenson: Smelly, buttery, and rancid. | 70
