Owner's words

The colour is straw yellow. The nose is complex, with notes of stewed yellow fruit mixed with very fresh citrus notes. Full-bodied and spherical on the palate, it is accompanied by notes of candied grapes, peaches and pineapple which, as the wine evolves on the palate, are complemented by notes of candied lemons that give the wine a tangy profile while giving it great depth and depth. The aromatic finish is long and lingers on fresh notes reminiscent of eucalyptus.
