Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
The wine shows a beautiful and soft straw yellow color and nuances of
greenish yellow, very transparent. The nose reveals intense, pleasing,
clean, refined and elegant aromas where the Sauvignon Blanc grape is
clearly perceivable from the beginning. The wine starts with fresh and
good aromas of elder flower, broom, peach, pear and pineapple followed by
intense and good aromas of banana, litchi, melon, grapefruit as well as
hints of bell pepper. In the mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a
pleasing crisp attack however well balanced, good body and very agreeable.
The finish is persistent with pleasing and good flavors of peach,
pineapple and melon. A well made wine.
