Clear, light, pale color with green reflection. Delicious aromas of ripe pears and crunchy citrus fruits such as grapefruit. Seductive floral notes and a hint of honey complete the whole, resulting in a unique interplay of taste and structure. Pure, healthy and fresh fruit dominates from the vineyard to the bottle. A simple but wonderfully tasty white wine!
