Color
Refined straw yellow with delicate golden reflections. The perlage is fine and persistent, a distinctive sign of its long maturation on the yeasts.
Smell
Rich and sophisticated bouquet. Elegant notes of white fruits emerge on the nose, such as rennet apple and pear, accompanied by citrus hints of lemon and grapefruit. The olfactory profile is completed by nuances of hazelnut, bread crust and a light spiciness, resulting from the refinement in oak barrels.
Taste
Structured and complex, with a lively freshness balanced by a pleasant flavor. The palate is enveloped in a creamy texture, with flavors of dried fruit, citrus and a hint of minerality that prolongs the dry and persistent finish.

Ideal to accompany important dishes. It pairs magnificently with raw fish, shellfish, oysters and tartare. Also perfect with seafood risotto, white meats and medium-aged cheeses.
