Color:

Pale yellow, crystalline, silver reflections.

Nose:

Beautiful aromatic expression with fine exotic notes reminiscent of passion fruit mixed with accents of grapefruit and floral touches of wisteria.

Aperitif, seafood platter, pan-fried prawns, a theme of fresh and semi-dried goat cheese.

Cellar aging:
