Nose
Acacia flower mingles with fruity or pineapple aromas followed by a harmonious succession of lemon and white peach.
Palate
At the beginning the wine displays a very stimulating touch of acidity, after that it becomes a lip smacking wine with a mineral touch. Citrus and tropical fruit allow a little hazelnut to peep through.
