Tasting notes

“The color is lemon yellow with golden highlights. The fresh nose of candied lemon and ginger, gives way to captivating notes of acacia and quince. The palate is fresh with a good tension that brings lightness, associated with fruity citrus notes in the finish that prolongs this mouth with panache but delicacy.”
