Appearance: Murky amber-orange color, with slight sediment, characteristic of naturally unfiltered wines. The wine is thicker, with a visually full-bodied structure.
Aroma: Distinct aromatics with notes of dried orange peel, peach, tea leaves, fresh herbs, and a slight oxidative character. There is also a note of wax and of ripe apricots.
Taste: Dry wine with a longer maceration, which provides pronounced tannins and structure. The flavor is complex—tea, honey, spices, and citrus bitters dominate. The acidity is medium and well connects all the elements.
Finish: Long-lasting finish with a slight bitterness and a spicy note. The wine lingers in the mouth, with a hint of salinity and a silky texture. It needs some time in the glass to fully open up.
