White gold color with silver or greenish reflections , shiny and soft.
Aromas suggest broom, acacia, green apple, lemongrass, citruses.
A fresh, dry and fruity, nervous with a good balance.
A food friendly wine that matches with a wide variety of dishes: grilled fish, creamy risottos, antipasti, salads, sushis, very pleasant at the aperitif.
