Description
Pale yellow with green tints. Complex and intense nose with abricot, flint stone, tropical fruits, whites flowers, lime and mango. Full and fresh attack on the palate with a good and steady acidity, balanced by a gentle sweetness and roundness. Long, mineral land fruity end. A dash of Extravaganza in a spring of straightforwardness!
