The nose has delicate aromas of citrus fruits and berries: red currant in particular. Folate of white flowers, have the fuller notes of bread crust, pastry and dried fruit. Clean and precise the aromas are of quality, and in vitano to the sip.
On the palate we observe a well painted structure, with minerality in large quantities and freshness adequate to the needs of the classic method.

The sensations persist, with aromas of almond, croissant and currant.
