Description

"Very beautiful pale golden yellow color with slight green reflections, bright and luminous robe. Active effervescence and persistent release.

A first nose of great intensity, with notes of fresh fruit, in particular ripe citrus. A second very fine and floral nose with notes of white flowers and white fruits (white peach). A supple, harmonious attack on the palate, lots of roundness.

A vinosity without excess, supported by a superb freshness. Notes of nugget, citrus, and a nice minerality on the finish. A fairly long and very refreshing finish."
