The intense, golden yellow colour, with good liveliness and brightness, highlights consistency and slow, dense arches. The olfactory impact opens intense and of medium complexity, then in succession we recognize fruity and floral hints of yellow peach, broom flower, lime honey and a finish of cinnamon and vanilla. Balanced entry on the palate between the alcoholic and soft sugary components, well balanced by a pleasant freshness and mineral flavour. Good taste-olfactory persistence, at the end there are pleasant almond and citrus scents.
