Appearance: Light
yellow straw.
Aroma: Mild
citrus. Stony, rocky and smoky.
Palate: Fresh and
clean on the palate with lovely minerally stony touch. Lingering notes of citrus
and apple. Vibrant acidity. Structured and depth as well. Wonderful complexity
and length.
Love the stony touch of this wine. Great concentration
with fruits too. Easily a great wine for everyday either with food or as
aperitif. It would surely worth waiting for some development. But why wait. It
is already delicious. Salute!!!
