Straw yellow color.
The nose has aromas of fruit and fresh flowers. We can distinguish the plum Regina Claudia, the medlar and stuffed and baked peaches, with that distant hint of amaretto. Also the scents of more delicate flowers, such as acacia, gardenia and magnolia are present.
On the palate emerges the minerality with the support of a good acidity. On the side of softness we must point out the creaminess expressed by glycerine and a slight residual sugar. Overall it is balanced. Persistent.
In the retro olfation come classic aromas of bitter almond and aromatic herbs. The progression it has had over time is very interesting.
