Tasting notes

Straw yellow with greenish highlights. Fine, fragrant, rich in ripe fruit and white flowers tones, almond, field herbs, citrus fruits, slightly spicy. It fills the mouth well, powerful, very persistent, a correct balance between structure and softness, thanks to freshness and sapidity that accompany the long finish. A wine of a good longevity.
