Owner's words
Bright, light and gold. The first nose is dominated by citrus notes (yellow and pink citrus peel) revealing the freshness of the blend. On aeration, it becomes more complex with warmer notes of melon and pastry spices, the finish releases linden and honey. Fresh and svelte on the palate, long and mineral, balanced by a velvety texture in the making.
