Les Jamelles Vin Orange 2020

Candice Chow writes "Brilliant, pale golden-salmon, even colour throughout. The nose is gentle, filled the glass with aromas of pear, peach interweave, orange zest, orange blossoms, juniper berries and creamy lees. Medium-full bodied, clean and pleasing aromas of peach, pear adorned by orange zest and blossoms, followed by juniper, ginger and red tea fragrance. The palate is textural, enhanced by a soft grip of chewy, skin phenolic extraction, along with creamy lees detail. Balanced acidity carries subtle tea fragrance and spice throughout the palate, lending a lingering finish. This fragranced vin blanc de maceration features clean, ripe fruit of peach and pear, juniper and ginger spice on a textural palate. Match with tapas and pulled pork over the next 3 years." 

Sam Kim writes "Complex and enticing, the bouquet shows orange peel, dried flower, anise and almond characters, followed by a weighty palate that’s both refined and expansive. It’s wonderfully complemented by well-pitched acidity and fine discreet tannins, finishing gorgeously long and pleasingly dry."
