TASTING NOTES
Citrus colour.
Very delicate aroma, hints of peach and green pineapple, dried vegetable, yellow stone fruits and a note of basaltic. Fine and sophisticated palate. Balanced and fresh acidity, citrus flavour, mineral and saline with a lovely dry finish.
Excellent as an aperitif.
Seafood, grilled or marinated fish.
