Aroma
Clean, fresh, concentrated pear drop and lychee characters.
Palate
Made in a true Italian style this wine finishes with a dry, clean palate. There is no escaping the concentration of ripe fruit on the mid palate, but the length and focus of the finish is where this wine sets itself apart. Pear drop and lychee characters are evident on the palate keeping this variety true to it's origin. |
