VINIFICATION AND AGEING
Grapes are taken to the winery as soon as they are picked for gentle crushing. The juice undergoes fermentation at a controlled temperature of approx. 18° C in order to retain all of the wine’s fruitiness and superior organoleptic qualities. This is followed by a period of aging on the lees to give the wine structure.
TASTING NOTES
colour: straw yellow with bright golden flecks.
bouquet: a subtle fruitiness comes through on the nose. The notes of Golden Delicious apple, citrus fruit and fresh almond blend perfectly with the mineral scents of flint.
flavour: the palate matches the nose impeccably: ample, with good acidity that gives freshness and fragrance. The finish is intense and persistent and reminiscent of almond.
FOOD PAIRINGS
Excellent aperitif, this is a traditional fresh wine that goes well with the whole meal. It pairs superbly with vegetable flans, fine cold meats and fish dishes.
