Tasting Notes
Bright yellow straw color, with green hints that reflect its youth. On the nose, it has medium to high intensity. Aromas of tropical fruits (pineapple) and citrus fruits first appear along with white fruits (apple) and herbs, such as boxwood and fennel. It is dry on the mouth with an amazing balance of freshness and acidity. Good structure and body given by its fine lees' aging. Long finish with a slightly bitter palate, typical of the variety
