Tasting notes

Golden color with luminous reflections. The nose, expressive and generous, reveals aromas of crunchy white fruits such as pear, mixed with notes of juicy yellow fruits such as peach. On the palate, the attack is lively, with remarkable tension which balances the aromatic delicacy. The finish, long and precise, is marked by fine and salivating bitters which invite you to take another sip.
