Characteristics

Diaphanous straw-yellow colour with pale Green nuances. Its nose is full and fragrant recalling fresh fruit, acacia flowers and honey. The palate is dry, harmonious, full-bodied and tangy. A good accompaniment to starters; it also goes well with subtle flavours, such as plain risotto or risotto with asparagus, gnocchi with fontina and steamed, poached or grilled fish. These delicate flavours are highlighted by the fine bouquet, tangy palate and pleasant harmony of a wonderful wine from our terroir.
