Vibrant, crisp and delicate
Tasting Notes
Colour
The colour is a lovely canary yellow with hints of light straw and is flecked with a stream of persistent bubbles.
Nose
The nose is clean with dominant aromas of lemon, pear and lime tree.
Palate
The structure of the palate is enhanced by the fullness of the quince, the fragrant acacia and the sweetness of the strawberry. A highly sensual wine.
