Deep and lush sweet lemon, honey, mint notes. Pretty acacia flowers and lifted precise yet lush fruit. Sweetness and criots lightness. Lovely stuff.

Ripe, blowsy with honey and sandalwood. Intense on the palate but lacks a little subtlety and cut. Maybe needs time but a bit of a blunt instrument.

Very bright, intense, fresh. A searing, focused palate. Ripe-almost Sauternes like. A sweetness but not that much. Hard to assess right now

Very crystaline and pure. A hint of sandalwood, peach and lovely floral notes. Weighty in the mouth. Very sophisticated and round. Long. Delicious

1/5 0,33ha vigne di 12 anni, 900 bottiglie all'anno, 12 mesi legno di cui 30% nuovo. Dorato cristallino, fiori gialli, tanti, fino alla camomilla, frutta, soprattutto agrumi, pompelmo grande corpo, struttura, fresco vivissimo, sapido ma perfettamente equilibrato e di grandissima eleganza. Lunghissimo e con retro olfattiva meravigliosa che aprendosi dona una c'era d'api e note burrose
