96 Sam Kim - Wine Orbit

It's sweetly ripe and wonderfully complex on the nose showing dark berry, vanillin oak, clove and violet aromas, followed by a concentrated palate that's gracefully silky and lingering, backed by firm tannins, finishing impressively long and structured. At its best: now to 2037.

The introduction to this wine is pure seduction. Mint, melted dark chocolate, sweet blackcurrant, coconut, Nutella and a general impression that you’re about to dive into a rich, dark, hedonistic pool. All these first impressions are confirmed when you take your first mouthful, which is faithful to the nose but then adds a significant swagger of tannin. This wine is certainly seductive but it’s also serious, in style, and serious in quality too. Indeed the word profound comes to mind. There’s some alcohol warmth here but this is an outstanding wine, concentrated, warm and expansive.
