Fresh aromas, slight basil-thyme green herbiness with some honey and floweriness. Very vibrant on the palate, the acidity keeps the sweetness in balance. Candied orange and pistachio on the palate; sage, clove, basil and dried fig notes in the nose. Its acidity makes the wine fresh and easy to drink, promising great ageing potential.
Serve at 12-14 °C
