Written Notes

Good looking magnum size bottle. Colour is green-yellow and medium. On the nose it is intense, youthful, seductive, fresh and refined. The taste is harmonious, focused, elegant, refined, fresh, and dry, and high in acidity, medium-bodied, with perfectly balanced, concentrated structure and youthful. On the palate it is layered and has white fruits, citrus and toasty flavours. The finish is long and lingering. This wine is sophisticated and fine. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 10-15 years.
