With an elegant pale gold color and bright reflections, this wine reveals delicate floral notes mixed with citrus and pear aromas on the nose, subtly underscored by fine toasted nuances and discreet minerality. The palate, complex and perfectly balanced, seduces with its precision and tension. Carried by refined minerality and harmoniously integrated acidity, it stretches elegantly towards a long, fresh, and persistent finish.
