Visual & Aromatic Profile
A bright straw-yellow colour with golden reflections. Expressive aromas of ripe orchard fruit and subtle floral notes.
Palate
Ripe peaches and pears lead the palate, supported by nuances of toast, lightly roasted bread, and fresh brioche from extended autolysis. Refined, fresh and persistent.
Food Pairing
Ideal as an aperitif and with cold seafood starters, shellfish, crustaceans, salmon and delicate white meats.
