Tasting Notes
The wine presents with yellow fruits, grapefruit and a delicately waxy note. The wonderfully integrated acid structure underlines the varietal typicality. On the palate there are subtle notes of almond, and the creamy texture rounds off the wine. It goes particularly well with white meat, fried fish and summer salads.
