Written Notes

Colour is yellow and medium. On the nose it is open, intense, refined, fresh and pure. The taste is fresh, focused, elegant, vivid, and dry, and high in acidity, medium-bodied, with well-structured and concentrated structure. On the palate it is layered and has mineral, citrus and white fruits flavours. The finish is long, lingering and vibrant. This wine is fine. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years.
