Tasting Notes

 

  • Colour : Straw yellow. Full-bodied and flavour.
  • Nose : intense and very complex nose of pineapple, lychees, peaches and apricots.
  • Palate : Full-bodied and flavourful on the palate.
  • Food pairing : Served between 12°C-13°C, not too cold, and let the wine breathe or decant it before serving. Goes well with spicy and exotic cooking and can also stand alone as a cocktail wine.
