Summary
The bright yellow colour, giving away the ripeness of the grapes, but perhaps wrongly influence on the style of the wine. The nose also shows rich, intense honey aromas, herbal notes and fruity flavours. This isn’t a shy nose! The palate comes then as a total surprise. Where the taster expects roundness and VT like sweetness, there are minerals, fierce acidity, chalky aromatics and a characterful palate.
