Tasting profile
Bright antique-gold in colour. Pineapple, banana and pear lead the aroma, alternating ripe-fruit richness with freshness and complexity. Citrus and grapefruit nuances highlight saline notes, aromatic herbs and an elegant touch of white pepper. The palate is full and substantial, with savoury freshness and a very persistent finish.
