Tasting note
Golden yellow hue with pronounced tears. A bouquet of candied pineapple slices, arancini and dried herbs accompanied by a whiff of pepper. The palate reveals an immense structure with restrained notes of, for example, orange jelly. Lots of creaminess with a fine sweetness and a lengthy, lingering piquant acidity. Still very young, but has excellent potential thanks to the enormous minerality.
Food recommendation
fried fish or grilled chicken
