Tasting Notes
Color of wine is clean and bright, with flashes of white gold.
Round and juicy wine with an oily texture. Long finish with complex floral and fruity bouquet.
The aroma of wine there are notes of a blossoming tree and white fruits such as white peach. With age, develop more complex aromas of spices, roasted almonds and white flowers.
Due to the richness of the bouquet and flavor of elegance, this wine deserves to be served gourmet cuisine: shellfish in wine sauce and fish specialties prepared on the grill.
