From the richness of the light gold color, deep but transparent, we can sense the pleasant contrast of creaminess and crunchiness that will await us at the tasting. It is in fact a soft white supported by a refreshing acid vein that accompanies the whole tasting. A subtle mineral trait makes the flavor of ripe yellow peaches, acacia honey and almond paste dialogue harmoniously with the most peaty, cereal and toasted aromas that overlook the powerful and balanced finish. PAIRING: Try it, for a change, with lightly seared foie gras or with roasted veal with a mushroom sauce.
