Tasting Notes
Medium greenish lemon with silver reflections. Fresh yellow tropical fruit, hints of ripe gooseberry, some blossom honey and caramel, candied lime zest: a multi-faceted bouquet that benefits from decanting. Juicy, very elegant, seems light on its feet, ripe yellow peach notes, and subtle fruit expression over a mineral texture. The wine is silky and balanced, a finessed food companion, and will gain length with maturity.
