SENSORY
PROFILE
Direct and punchy, in keeping with this varietal’s typical characteristics. The white plum is well expressed, along with herbaceous and yellow hay notes.
On the palate the wine is full and well-structured. There is a slight hint of acidity and a well-developed flavour. Perfect with salt fish dishes.
