Tasting Notes
The first nose reveals a lot of tropical fruits, essentially passion fruit notes. The mouth is light, with a great minerality and crunchiness that come from the brown shale soil. The fruit is young and fresh also in the mouth, with another explosion of tropical aromas; the end is long and yummy.

Service & Consumption
Serve at 8 °C / 46.4 °F to consume at 10/12 °C (50/53.6 °F)

Food Pairings
The citric and tropical aromas of this wine marry perfectly with salads and seafood; also ideal for white meats and grilled fish without much seasoning in addition to olive oil, butter and herbs. Suggestion: duck leg confit and wild mushroom risotto flavoured with lemon zest.
