Bright, clear hue with intense golden green glimmers. The nose is elegant, delicate and characterized by floral notes of acacia and lime blossom combined with soft waves of citrus fruits. The palate is rich, dense and opulent. The aromatic profile reveals toasty notes and candied fruits. The finish is long, tonic and very mineral. Ripe fruits combine harmoniously with mineral notes to give a soft mouthfeel.
