Tasting Notes
Vibrant almost golden yellow in colour. Opens with elegance to the nose: fresh, fruity and floral with notes of citrus, peach, almond and hawthorn blossom. Taste has good structure and is pleasantly fresh.

100% Grechetto grapes handpicked in the third week of September. Soft pressing, cold static clarification and fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine rests for a period of time in stainless steel tanks, on the yeast lees and before bottling.
