Tasting notes
Intense and golden color. The aroma is floral and subtle. On the palate, a nice tension is expressed, followed by complex and persistent aromas. The aging in barrels gives this wine a beautiful structure and a lot of roundness. We recommend it on a red tuna tataki with sesame. Serve between 11 and 14°.
