TASTING NOTES AND FOOD PARING
The aroma is delicately floral, while the taste on the palate is soft and fruity with a balanced structure. This wine is very easy drinking, light and pleasant, perfect for warm days.
Perfect for fish dishes (sea or freshwater fish) especially grilled fish. It also pairs well with white meats and pasta or rice dishes with delicate flavours. It is ideal as an aperitif with savoury bites, and is the perfect accompaniment for a buffet of mixed starters. It is also fresh and pleasant drunk on its own.
