Tasting note
Golden yellow and showing massive legs. An aristocratic fragrance – distinguished and reserved – with scents of dried yellow fruit and a hint of marigold ointment. The palate reveals a mineral structure and notes of flint, orange and lemon verbena; also a smoky touch. Straightforward and austere, bone dry with a vibrant acidity. Shows full power in the never-ending finish that’s marked with a rich lemon jelly tone.
