Sam Kim - Wine Orbit

Wonderfully complex and enticing, the bouquet shows orange peel, honey, apricot, lemon sorbet, and subtle spice aromas. The palate delivers juicy fruit intensity with creamy texture and enticing sweetness, wonderfully countered by bright acidity, making it flavoursome and hugely appealing. Style: Medium.

Gracefully maturing and superbly complex, the wine shows lemon curd, marmalade, toasted spice and potpourri characters, leading to a richly fruited palate that is fleshy and mouthfilling. It is immensely appealing with subtle sweetness backed by refreshing acidity, finishing impressively long and delicious. Library stock.

The extended age shows dried apples, pears and white flowers. Full-bodied with loads of fruit and phenolics that frame it nicely and give it length and polish. A waxy, lemon curd sense to this. Long, flavorful and very, very textured.

This has developed beautifully with lime marmalade and gently toasty complexity, across still-fresh fruit at the core. Smooth, balanced and gently off-dry.
