Colour

Pale gold with bright golden highlights.

Bouquet

Very intense. First notes are quite fresh: lemongrass, green pepper and elderflowers. On aeration, fruity notes are being revealed in which exotic fruits such as fresh mango, passion fruit are melted within a chiseled lemon frame. The finish is floral and salty, offering a great complexity to the wine.

Flavour

The attack is smooth, showing a nice volume, it recalls the fruity pallet found on the nose. Then acidity progressively rises, giving a delicate tangy touch to the wine with a lemon, mineral and salty frame. The long finishing remains on this tangy taste, highlighting the wine as a whole.
