Tasting notes

The robe is pale yellow with silver reflections. The palette expresses a floral and fruity register on nuances of white flowers (hawthorn, acacia) completed by notes of ripe yellow peaches. The perception of wood is light and well integrated. The mouth develops on a balanced texture with notes of melted wood and honey. The wine is dashing on a full body relayed by an acidic support of beautiful brightness. The finish reveals toasted, vanilla notes.
