Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, it has a bright straw-yellow colour. On the nose, aromas of hawthorn and cherry blossom gradually give way to fruity notes of green apple and apricot, with delicate hints of dried fruit, hazelnut and almond. On the palate, it is well-balanced, with pleasant citrus notes that balance the sweet notes of the Chardonnay grapes.
It pairs well with light dishes such as salads, fish carpaccio, seafood risotto and grilled fish, as well as white meats. Perfect for aperitifs, informal dinners and social gatherings.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 8–10°C.
