Tasting Notes
Medium greenish yellow with silver reflections. Delicately reductive but opening up with air, the nose has savoury herbal nuances, a hint of anise, and a fine peach touch. Textured and well-structured on the palate, with yellow stone fruit nuances, a touch of pineapple, ripe peach, fine acidity, and a creamy, silky texture. Spread over a long arc, it has a great future ahead. Good ageing potential.
