Straw yellow, with golden reflections, it begins at the nose with pronounced floral scents that turn towards the fruity, recalling hints of apple and ripe pear.

On the palate it is soft and enveloping and expertly doses a good body with a pleasantly acidic vein, which gives freshness to the drink. Balanced in every component, it has a good persistence.

Pairings: Great versatility on the table, it is excellent in combination with white meats and tasty fish such as tuna. It also goes well with fish-based first courses and tasty legume soups. Finally, it is also perfect when seasoned with cured meats.
