The wine shows a soft golden yellow color and nuances of straw yellow,
very transparent. The nose reveals personality with clean and elegant
aromas. There can be perceived good and intense aromas of acacia,
pineapple, banana, hawthorn, broom, kiwi, litchi, apple, hazelnut,
toasted bread and vanilla as well as good aromas of toasted wood. In
the mouth denotes a round character however balanced, and good
correspondence to the nose, intense flavors and body as well as a
pleasing elegance. The finish is persistent with pleasing and intense
flavors of hazelnut, kiwi, banana and vanilla. A well made wine.
