Golden yellow color, dense texture.

Intense aromas are expressing over-ripe fruits, cooked apples, plum jam, gooseberries, yellow sultanas, figs in alcohol, and orange peel. Yellow flowers open up, with brooms and roses, wild mint, thyme, sweet bread, and butter.

Its balanced, taste reflects and indulging elegance of softness and subtle minerality, with a warmth that elegantly accompanies the persistence of flavor and accentuates its structured body.
