Tasting Notes
Medium golden yellow. Fine aroma of white stone fruit underpinned with some meadow herbs, a hint of grapefruit zest, attractive bouquet. Juicy, elegant, mineral-salty, multifaceted acid structure, pineapple on the finish, white tropical fruit in the aftertaste, persistent, balanced food companion with certain ageing potential.
