Deep golden in colour, with a complex and expressive nose of ripe pear, yellow apple and peach, layered with citrus peel, white flowers, toasted hazelnut and subtle honeyed notes. The palate is broad, rich and silky, showing concentrated yellow fruit and citrus balanced by vibrant acidity and a distinctive mineral tension. Toasted nuts and gentle savoury nuances add complexity, while a pronounced saline character brings freshness and definition. Powerful yet energetic, with a long, persistent mineral finish.
