Tasting notes
Colour: Pale straw yellow, with greenish reflections when young and golden nuances with the aging. Perfume: The nose is fresh, mineral, with intense floral notes of acacia, jasmine and elderflower, and rich fruit notes such as fresh almond, pear, yellow peach, pineapple, lemon and the characteristic crispy cherry. It closes on nuances reminiscent of aromatic herbs, sage, lemon-thyme and mint. Palate: Dry, refreshing, well balanced and elegant, with tremendous length and finesse.
Vinification
The grapes are destemmed and crushed in a protective environment. Free run juice is fermented at low temperatures between 14-18°C in glass-lined cement tanks.
Ageing
12 to 15 months on the fine lees in glass-lined cement tanks.
Food pairing
Amazing as an aperitif. Also excellent with a wide range of dishes - vegetable dishes, fish and shellfish, soft cheeses.
