Tasting Note

Pale lemon in colour. The nose shows pronounced mineral notes, complemented by aromas of stone and citrus fruit, particularly peach and lemon, with subtle floral nuances in the background. The palate is full-bodied with high acidity and a distinctive saline character that enhances freshness. The finish is long, echoing the aromas found on the nose.
