This is a buxom Chardonnay with great body and excellent aging potential. A deep golden yellow, this ’08 swooshes across the palate,coating the mouth with an unusual weightiness, leaving a delicious creamy,fresh mouth-feel. Like having high tea at the sea, this wine’s bread-and-butter,a hint of peppermint, striking minerality, fresh flowers and apricot jam hold hands in this delicious, fatty Chardonnay that finishes with a saline freshness. Just lovely and drinking to the end of the next decade.
Simcic Marjan Description
Marjan Simcic, an estate that straddles the border between Slovenia's Brda and Italy's Friuli, offers a fine complement to one of IWM HK's most beloved producers, Movia. While the biodynamic Movia makes wild, energetic wines, the wines made by Marjan Simcic show clean, classic lines and powerful personalities. Simcic's wines speak just as articulately of their fascinating terroir as those from Movia, but they do it while hewing closer to convention;however, they’re so intense, complex and powerful, Simcic’s wines will testyour preconception about wines from Italy’s North. Marjan is a fifth-generationwinemaker and he cultivates his grapes organically, believing that this choiceisn't just better for the environment, but it also imbues his wines with hisinteresting microclimate.
