Pale lemon yellow. The bouquet is expressive and inviting, characterised by bright fruit (grapes, green apple, lemon) interwoven with complex yeasty and smoky nuances, backed by subtle vegetal notes. Lean on the palate with medium acidity, though citrus drives through the core to lend lift. Juicy and moreish, underpinned once again by a smoky note that persists into the pleasant finish. A compelling wine for casual and discerning drinkers alike, and an effortless food companion.
Drink through 2028.
