Still young it has a remarkable concentration and intensity. The reflections are gold and green and brilliant. The tears are wide and fatty. The bouquet is so expressive that it opens out immediately and spontaneously! Remarkable balanced, this wine has just that amount of freshness and vivacity, that the concentration and intensity give off an aromatic composition with floral aromas: periwinkle, honeysuckle, orange blossom and fennel. You can smell its fruitiness, peach, honeysuckle, bush peach, fresh almonds, pear, strawberry and pineapple juice to quote some of the aromas that come forth at the very beginning. With age, and it will still maintain its elegance and develop more complex aromas. A perfect balance on the palate at the very outset, this dry fresh wine awakens the taste buds with the same spontaneity as for the bouquet. Its structure, full body, fat contents and flesh harmonize with the acidity to give an explosion at the end of the pallet of a wine with great class and character without any concessions, but with nobility and aristocratic tradition. Can be drunk immediately to take advantage of its youth, but has exceptional cellaring qualities.
