Tasting notes
Straw yellow with golden reflections. It opens slowly on the nose offering floral and fruity notes at first to then evolve into menthol aromas and cut grass typical of very old vines (70-80 years). Harmonious to taste it is willing to drink, leaving pleasant velvety sensations on the palate.
