Primary, fresh aromas of green fruits, citrus fruits and white peaches are accompanied by a marked leavened note of bread dough and brioche. On the palate, the alcohol content is medium, the acidity refreshing, the aromas are in line with the nose and a marked minerality stands out. The good general balance between aromas, body and acidity and the fresh exuberance typical of this type of wine undoubtedly characterize it as a good wine.
