Good looking normal size bottle. Colour is straw, and looking bright and light. On the nose it is open, youthful, ripe and pure. The taste is fresh, fragrant, vivid, refined, and dry, and high in acidity, medium-bodied, with balanced structure and youthful. On the palate it is layered and has mineral, citrus, white fruits and bread flavours. The finish is medium long, round and vibrant. This wine is fine.
