Tasting Note

In this case, the very faint golden colour does not anticipate the explosion of aromas of ripe fruit and the aromatic load of white flowers which magically transport the drinker to the slopes of the volcano. On the palate the wine also succeeds in combining softness and boldness of taste with a drinkability rich with the authentic fruitiness of lemon peel and green apple, linked to a fascinating minerality which prolongs the finish.
