Pale straw yellow color.
The nose has aromas of fresh fruit with yellow paste, plum and golden apple. There is no shortage of citrus fruits of yellow, lemon and cedar in particular, and aromatic herbs. Among these we can distinguish thyme and savory. Even marine ideas and delicate flowers widen the olfactory prospectus.
On the palate it is distinguished by its vivid minerality and similar acidity. Good substance, for an overall softness of all respect. In the retro olfation aromas of aromatic herbs and fresh fruit reach the nasal receptors.
Accompanies with pleasantness, slightly spicy stewed lentils, raw fish dishes and even baked under a mantle of salt. Remarkable with crustaceans, either simply steamed, as in sauce to dress the first courses.
