Appearance: Shiny golden-lemon color with greenish hues; medium to full body, dense and clear structure with mineral freshness.
Aroma: Rich aroma of peaches, pears, mandarins, Meyer lemon, overlaid with delicate floral notes (acacia, hawthorn) and a hint of vanilla and a smoky/spicy finish. The overall profile is complex and refined.
Taste: Medium to full body with a doughy-creamy structure. Fruity notes (grapefruit, peach, apple) are supported by herbs, lemon zest, and a slight spicy tone. Refreshing, zesty texture with a lovely mineral thread.
Finish: Long-lasting and balanced finish – the fruitiness develops into mineral-spicy tones with a slight aftertaste of citrus and herbs. Recommended drinking period: 2022–2031.
