Score: ✧✧✧ |
The wine shows a greenish yellow color, very transparent. Wine's
aromas are very delicate and refined and show good personality. There
can be perceived intense and good aromas of pineapple, banana, lemon,
pear, peach and elder-tree. The attack in the mouth is pretty crisp, a
characteristic that tends to be always present in mouth, however it is
balanced thanks to alcohol. Wine's finish is persistent with pleasing
flavors of pineapple and pear followed by hints of crispness. This wine
is fermented is steel containers and it is allowed to stay on its
yeasts for three months.
