Tasting notes:
Gold color with greenish highlights. The olfactory expression plays on notes of orange zest and lemon to harmonize with more summery fruits (white peach and pear) accompanied by more honey and peppermint notes. A complex sip that results in a wine of great elegance and richness endowed with a round attack and a vibrant, unrelenting freshness that develops with notes of mango and lychee.
