Pineapple and melon aromas with a hint of the smell of fresh baked bread. Oak is upfront on the pallet (a bit heavy) with apple and pears in the background. Straw gold color and a little spicy. Fresh and bold. Refreshing change from oaky Chardonnay.

Wine 1 at a tasting. Light yellow, but dark in tasting room. Asparagus notes. Buttery on the palate. Paired with porchetta and matched the slight pepper nicely.

Kypsän hedelmäinen tuoksu, mineraalia ja runsasta tammea. Maku seuraa tuoksua ollen tiukka, tamminen, mineraalinen ja hunajainen.
