Tasting Notes
Crystal-clear, bright straw yellow color with golden reflections, consistent.
On the nose the sample is intense, complex and fine. The bouquet of scents is: floral, fruity, herbaceous and mineral. Hints of fresh white flowers such as boxwood, yellow and tropical fruits such as pineapple and mango, mown grass, tomato leaf, citrus hints of grapefruit and apple, flint and gunpowder.
On the palate the sample is balanced in its parts, intense and quite persistent with a fine quality citrus aftertaste.
It is recommended to combine linguine with seafood.
