Tasting notes
Straw yellow with pearly reflections. The rather broad aroma ranges from yellow flowers, thyme and chamomile flowers, to which, in time, are added notes of coffee powder and honey. The palate is caressed by the gustatory harmony of this vine, characterized by well-balanced acidity and alcohol.
