Amber color. To the nose, delicate bouquet of white fruits, apricot skin and vanilla aroma. On the palate, it is well-structured and savoury, elegant and refined, with mineral notes, rich and deep taste with a long finish.
Perfect to drink as an aperitif, it goes well with fish starters, raw fish or light, delicate seafood dishes. Serve at 12-15 °C.
