Tasting profile

The general profile is delicate, fragrant, fresh and graceful. Citrus and white flowers lead the aroma, while mandarin, lime and geranium-flower notes carry onto a mineral palate. The 2024 vintage is deep yellow with bright highlights. Its enveloping bouquet combines ripe pineapple, orange blossom and delicate white peach. The palate is fresh and balanced, with orange-flower notes and an elegant, persistent, mineral finish.
