WINE CHARACTERISTICS

Tasting notes

A straw yellow color brightened by golden reflections. On the nose it unfolds a fragrant bouquet of white flowers, enriched by ripe yellow fruit and tropical hints, with a finish that turns to sweet spices. On the palate, a vibrant entrance of sapidity and freshness drives the extremely dynamic development of the sip.
