Tasting Note

Deep straw yellow, with crystalline brightness. Hints of ripe exotic fruit, apricot, orange peel, almond and flint. Floral bouquet of orange blossom and jasmine, followed by aromatic herbs, sage and mint. On the finish notes of powdery ash and beeswax. The mouthfeel is persistent, yet fine. The texture given by the long rest on the lees is fully enveloping, in perfect balance with the fresh citrus notes the expressive flavors.
