Method & Production
Tasting notes
Pale yellow in color, this wine displays a refined mineral character. The bouquet is expressive and floral, evolving with age to reveal delicate hints of honey. On the palate, it opens with a vibrant freshness, gradually softened by maturity into a smooth, well-rounded finish.
Food matching
Delicate fish dishes, pan-fried or steamed. Also very good with omelettes and poached eggs.
