Tasting Notes
Brilliant, straw yellow with greenish reflections, with a fine, numerous and persistent perlage.
Quite complex bouquet of hints: floral, fruity and mineral. Hints of fresh white flowers such as hawthorn and lily, fruits such as green apple and peach, hints of citrus, flint.
Fresh sample, with a good acidic shoulder, with a good flavor that invites you to take a new sip. The taste is persistent and very intense.
Recommended for an aperitif based on cold cuts and soft cheeses.
