Tasting Notes

Complex and captivating

The more you smell it, the more pleasure it offers — a laser-precise nose and a mineral-salty finish.

🍷

Appearance

Golden-yellow hue from meticulous winemaking, with a greenish glint revealing both youth and aging potential.

🌼

Nose

Opens with toasted almonds in butter, evolving into sage, chamomile, and floral notes layered with ripe yellow-green fruit drizzled in sage honey.

🕊

Palate

Ripe pears and green apples, sage honey, chamomile, and elderflower tea, accented with rosemary and fleur de sel — finishing on noble bitter almond with a mineral-salty touch.

On the Menu

Food pairings

A sommelier's white — structured enough for the kitchen's most refined plates.

🐟
White Fish

Pan-seared turbot, monkfish, or dentex — ideal with delicate, oven-finished fillets.

🥗
Roman Gnocchi

With julienned leeks, carrots, and zucchini, topped with a fish stock reduction.

🍖
Saltimbocca

From the meat side of the menu, prosciutto-wrapped veal is a perfect match.
