Straw yellow with slight green reflections. The bouquet is delicate and fruity, combining tropical fruit, banana and pineapple with white and yellow flowers. The palate is soft and enveloping, with alcohol elegantly balanced by the wine’s structure. It is fresh and aromatic, with an intense, refined character and a long, persistent fruity and floral finish.
