Tasting Notes
Light golden in colour, yet still almost closed on the nose with notes of ripe fruit, apple and wet leaves. A hint of sweetness at the beginning, then soft and buttery on the nose, with a silky texture, yet also firm and long, increasing in extract on the palate, almost chewy, remains homogeneous for an incredibly long time, a wine that combines finesse and power very well.
