Tasting note
Brilliant golden yellow hue with thick tears. A noble bouquet with scents of yellow apple and dried banana slices – these tones continue to the palate along with orange and a touch of pepper spice. Mouth filling and harmonious; very calm and substantial on the tongue; nicely dry with smooth, fine acidity and an aristocratic finish.

Food recommendation
Baked foods, roast chicken
