Colour

Brilliant straw yellow with greenish reflections.

Bouquet

The nose offers a rich and fragrant bouquet where typical notes of orange blossom are joined by citrus (citron and bergamot) and exotic fruit.

Flavour

In the mouth the fruity and floral notes return, accompanied by a marked freshness, with good persistence and a pleasant mineral finish.

Pairing

Try it with raw fish, shellfish and tempura (fish or vegetable based). We recommend it with all blue fish.
