Aroma
The nose reveals aromas of
white flowers, bergamot, white-fleshed pear, and subtle
mineral nuances.
Maturation
The
wine is then aged on its fine lees, with gentle stirring, for
a minimum of four months.
Appearance
Bright lemon-green colour.
Palate
Full-bodied on the palate, with a
pronounced earthy character and balanced, crisp acidity.
Long, persistent finish.
Vinification
Selective hand harvest and careful sorting in the vineyard.
The grapes are cooled to 10°C before being transferred to
the press, where a second rigorous selection takes place.
Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks at 16°C.
Food Matching
An excellent match for seafood and grilled fish, white
meats and light red meats seasoned with aromatic herbs
and spices, dishes featuring grilled vegetables, as well as
cheese and charcuterie platters. It is also an ideal aperitif,
especially when accompanied by roasted and salted nuts.
